Encore Boston Harbor, Casino and resort complex in Everett, United States.
Encore Boston Harbor is a gaming and hotel complex on the Mystic River in Everett, Massachusetts, with a 27-story bronze-glass tower and a multi-level casino. The property includes event spaces, entertainment facilities, and multiple restaurants spread across the grounds.
The property opened in June 2019 after a comprehensive redevelopment of the former chemical plant site that had been used for industrial purposes for decades. The transformation took several years and involved cleaning contaminated areas and redesigning the riverfront for public access.
The resort houses a theater with over 500 seats where live performances take place in an intimate setting, and a spa with European-inspired treatments. These offerings attract weekend visitors and guests from throughout the Boston metropolitan area.
The complex connects to the harbor with free shuttle buses running to nearby transit hubs, and offers complimentary parking for visitors. Those staying longer can use the links to the regional public transport network to reach other destinations around Boston.
The building displays a floral sculpture in stainless steel that spans multiple floors and is visible from below in the courtyard. This installation reflects in the glass walls of the atrium and changes its appearance depending on the time of day and light conditions.
