“Malden River Works for Waterfront Equity and Resilience” isn’t just the name of our project - it is a rejection of the status quo and a demand for change. Racial justice is an essential part of our work.

The Malden River Works Team stands in solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement.

This project is made possible through a generous grant from the MIT Norman B. Leventhal Center for Advanced Urbanism, which has awarded Malden River Works with the first ever Norman B. Leventhal City Prize for equitable resilience. Further funding was provided by the State of Massachusetts’ Municipal Vulnerability Preparedness Program Action Grant and MAPC’s Accelerating Climate Resiliency Grant Program.
