About Everett, Massachusetts

Everett is a city of 49,075 people in Middlesex County, across the Mystic River from Charlestown. Europeans settled here in 1630, when the land was part of Charlestown. It later belonged to Malden, and in 1870 it split off as a town of its own. The town was named for Edward Everett, who had been governor, senator, secretary of state and president of Harvard. Everett became a city in 1892. On December 13 of that year, voters chose Alonzo H. Evans over George E. Smith as the first mayor.

Over the years, landfill pushed the shore out into the river. Between 1905 and 1912 it joined White Island to the mainland. Beacon Oil began building a refinery by the river in 1919 and opened it in 1920. Five major explosions or fires hit it in its first ten years. Standard Oil of New Jersey bought it in 1929. The refinery closed in 1965, but its storage tanks stayed. In 1971 Distrigas of Massachusetts opened the country's first terminal for imported liquefied natural gas, at Island End.

  • The last two-house city councilFor years Everett's Board of Aldermen had seven members, and its Common Council had eighteen. It was the last city in the country with a two-house council. On November 8, 2011, voters approved a new charter. It created one City Council of eleven members, six from the wards and five at large, first elected in 2013.
  • A pioneer nurse at WoodlawnWoodlawn Cemetery was organized in 1850 on land then in Malden. It was consecrated on July 2, 1851, and it came into Everett with the split of 1870. Mary Eliza Mahoney is buried there. She finished nursing school in 1879 and was the country's first African American to train and work as a professional nurse. Her grave got a fitting monument in 1968, after a drive led by Helen Sullivan Miller, who had won the medal named for Mahoney.
  • A sculptor and a scientistEverett was the 1866 birthplace of the sculptor Hermon Atkins MacNeil. He designed the Standing Liberty quarter, which was minted from 1916 to 1930. He also carved the figure Justice, the Guardian of Liberty, for the Supreme Court building. Vannevar Bush, son of the local Universalist pastor, was born here on March 11, 1890. He later headed the Office of Scientific Research and Development.
  • The road to Revere BeachCharles Eliot named the Revere Beach Parkway among his first proposed parkways in an 1893 report. It would let people from inland towns get to the beach. The Olmsted Brothers advised on the design, and it was built between 1896 and 1904. It runs from Wellington Circle in Medford across Everett and Chelsea into Revere. The last part, running from Main Street in Everett to the Fellsway, was finished between 1903 and 1905.
  • Teddie since 1924The Leavitt Corporation has made its Teddie Peanut Butter in Everett since 1924. The city is also home to the Mystic Generating Station, built by Boston Edison. It has the largest capacity of any power plant in Massachusetts.
