Boston, Krafts Reach Agreement on Everett Stadium
The Kraft Group secured deals including $48 million for Boston and community payments in Everett for a 25,000-seat stadium with environmental cleanup and public park plans.
- On Wednesday, the Kraft Group announced it reached community impact agreements with the City of Boston and City of Everett to advance a New England Revolution stadium on the Everett waterfront former Mystic Station site by the Dec. 31 rezoning deadline.
- Negotiations began a year after the law was signed, prompted by Governor Maura Healey's legislation that required rezoning for nonindustrial use on the 43-acre parcel while the Krafts targeted a 25,000-seat stadium at Mystic Station, using mediator Tom Glynn in Boston but none in Everett.
- Financial terms include Boston's $48 million community benefits package over 15 years with $13 million for Sullivan Square, plus Everett's $20 million park fund and $2 million walkway contribution under Route 99.
- With agreements in hand, the process moves to permitting, including a MEPA review of the former power-plant cleanup; officials say the project will support Everett Public Schools and prioritize local workers and community groups.
- Amid waterfront redevelopment, Boston and Everett's deals include a $2 million walkway and are seen as milestones before Mayor Carlo DeMaria hands over to the mayor-elect next week, the Kraft Group wrote.
