Lets Keep Downtown Providence Parks Vibrant Together

Support DPPN

Join us in preserving and enhancing the Downtown Providence Park Network (DPPN)

Tucked into the heart of downtown, Abbott Park is a quiet reminder of where the city began 🌿

Dating back to the 18th century, Providence’s oldest public park offers a small but meaningful place to pause—surrounded by the rhythm of the city, yet somehow set apart. Whether you’re passing through or taking a moment to sit, it’s a little piece of history still woven into everyday life.

📍 corner of Weybosset St & Empire St

Congrats to @wrwc_ri on the completion of the bike path extension — now you can bike all the way from Johnston to Downtown Providence (under a secret passageway though the mall!) on protected bike lanes.

Along the way you’ll find public art, a storm water garden, and a kayak launch.

We loved learning more of the history of the area, including a century-old planned but unrealized fruit market right where @farmfreshri now stands, and the factories that produced rubber molds for the jewelry industry you might still find lying at the bottom of the river!

A great day to celebrate Providence’s past, present and future.

This is what a King Tide looks like on the Riverwalk!

@providenceplanning has developed the Riverwalk Resilience Project to plan for a future when this flooding happens more than a few times a year.

We are excited to learn more about the project at the @growsmartri summit next week.

Hot dang it’s hot out here but the PVD Fan Zone it open and looks amazing!

Pro-tip: there is a clear bag policy but you can bring a water bottle, and there is a water refilling station inside the Fan Zone.

First game on at 3 pm Mexico vs. South Africa!

Amazing work by @risummerofsoccer @providenceact and @providencetourism to put this all together!!
Game on!! ⚽️
