Wynn Boston Harbor, previously referred to as the Wynn Everett project, is a luxury resort and casino that is under construction in Everett, Massachusetts and developed by Wynn Resorts. The resort borders the City of Boston and is approximately five miles from Boston’s Logan International Airport and financial district. Described by Wynn Resorts as "the largest private single-phase construction project in the history of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts," the development is located on a 33-acre parcel of land previously used for industrial purposes along the Mystic River. It is expected to open in 2019 at a total cost of $2.4 billion. After a remediation process to clean the site, Wynn Resorts has begun constructing an integrated resort with a hotel, a harborwalk, restaurants, a casino, spa, retail outlets, and meeting and convention space. Public amenities of the year-round harborwalk will include a picnic park, paths for bikers and pedestrians, viewing decks, waterfront dining and retail, a performance lawn, floral displays, and boat docks.

In 2015, Wynn Resorts purchased 33 acres of land along the Mystic River in Everett, Massachusetts, announcing plans to build the resort-casino Wynn Everett on the plot. With the project later renamed Wynn Boston Harbor, around 30 of those acres had previously been set aside for industrial use and were inaccessible to the public. A section of the plot had been known as White Island in the 1800s, with the island later becoming part of the mainland as backfill expanded the shoreline along the Mystic River. Prior to any backfill, as early as 1804 a dye house had been built on the land, which was later occupied by Cochrane Chemical Company.
