Kennedy Playground sits on the Neponset River in Mattapan and is being rebuilt as the anchor of the Edgewater Greenway project, which is opening roughly half a mile of previously inaccessible riverfront with a new trail, shade shelters, and a picnic pavilion; the trail extension is expected to open in mid-2026.
