Mission
The mission of the Charlestown Waterfront
Coalition (CWC) is to promote coordinated,
community-guided planning and development of the entire
Charlestown waterfront and to ensure that its execution
meets community objectives.
Background
The CWC will make every effort to
encourage and sustain a waterfront of vibrant maritime,
commercial, residential and public spaces characterized
by:
A continuous waters edge Harbor Walk
Substantial open space
Appropriate levels and types of
construction
Preservation of the historic character
of the Navy Yard
Housing which accommodates a diverse
population
Sufficient parking and traffic control
Facilities of Public Accommodation
