Mystic River

The Mystic River is a 7.0-mile-long (11.3 km) river in Massachusetts, in the United States. In Algonquan, missi-tuk means "large estuary," alluding to the tidal nature of the Mystic. The resemblance to the English word mystic is a coincidence, which the colonists naturally followed. The Mystic River has a long history of industrial use and a continuing water quality problem. Some sections are undergoing an extensive cleanup as part of the construction of Everett's new Encore Boston Harbor casino.
