Return to the riverWith housing projects sprouting on its banks, the Neponset is coming backBy Robert Preer, Globe Correspondent | February 11, 2007
Boston's once-neglected river is now a popular address.
The Neponset River, long one of the state's most polluted and neglected waters, is enjoying a renaissance, as about a dozen new housing developments are being built or planned along its riverfront, from Quincy to Westwood. "We have had so much progress in improving the water quality, bringing back wildlife, and opening up access, the river is finally being seen as a resource," said Ian Cooke, executive director of the Neponset River Watershed Association. One of the most striking -- and visible -- of the new developments is Neponset Landing, a 12-story, 280-unit apartment building that cuts a slightly curved profile along the riverfront in Quincy. The building is scheduled for completion in October, and features views of Boston and the river as it empties into Dorchester Bay. Neponset Landing, like most of the new residential projects on the river, is being built on properties previously used by industry. The river, which powered the region's early mills, has since become a desired amenity for condo and apartment dwellers. A closed pizza box factory in Hyde Park, for example, will host a 48-unit affordable condominium complex and a 51-unit elderly apartment building, with construction on the condos starting as early as this spring. "There will be an open, green space next to the river. I think it's one of the things that makes the development attractive," said Paula Herrington, executive director of the South End-based ETC Development Corp., which is jointly developing the project, known as Neponset Field, with the Mattapan Community Development Corp. Across the river and slightly upstream is Milton Falls, a planned 89-unit luxury condo development that would have 600 feet of riverfront. Developer Ken Mackin wants to use a dam that was built for a closed paper plant to power a small hydroelectric generator that would serve his building. "It's so close to the city with all of the state parkland around it. It's like being in the middle of nowhere," said Mackin. Indeed, much of the upstream portions of the Neponset are not easily visible, hidden behind overgrown brush and old chain-link fencing. For more than two centuries the Neponset was used mainly as a repository for industrial and human waste. At various points, it was dammed, diverted, and forced underground. But in recent years a number of clean up projects have cleared out the overgrowth or peeled off the grime that obscured access to the river. The biggest project is the 65-acre Pope John Paul II Park at the mouth of the Neponset River in Dorchester, which opened in 2001. The following year the 2.4-mile Neponset Greenway bike path along the river in Dorchester and Milton opened.
