The Mystic River Reservation was one of the original five reservations delineated by the Metropolitan Park Commission in 1893. The reservation is adjacent to a wide variety of land uses –ranging from industrial sites to residential neighborhoods to conservation land – as it runs through four towns. The Master Plan includes new and enhanced recreational areas, expansion and protection of habitat and ecologically sensitive areas, schematic plans for a continuous public greenway, recommendations for improved access to and throughout the reservation and a management plan to assist with future care of the greenway. The public process conducted as part of this project helped to ensure that the plan meets the needs of the community and has fostered support for the project.
