195 District Park is seven-acre urban waterfront park in the heart of Providence’s 195 District that opened in 2019. The park was designated open space as part of the relocation of a portion of Interstate 195 and the creation of the I-195 Redevelopment District. The park serves as a community gathering place and a cornerstone of a growing innovation district, hosting thousands of daily visitors with programming and events throughout the year. The park features two seasonal concessions, an ice cream vendor and a beer garden.
Tonight the awesome theprovidencedrumtroupe returns to the Michael Van Leesten Pedestrian Bridge in Providence tonight at 6:30pm for our sunset celebration!! #giantpuppets #streetperformance #195districtpark #drumfam
After losing a bidding war to buy its longtime location on South Water Street, the ProvidenceFlea has a new home for its artisan market ahead of the summer season.
The Flea will be relocating just a stone’s throw away to the other side of the Providence River in the 195 District Park.

GM!! I am happy to share with you that this first time children’s book author will be back at providenceflea this Sunday, August 11th from 10-3pm. 🎉🎊📚📚📚
As a newbie in this space, I can say that it isn’t easy, but if you have a desire to do something (in this case, saw a need), do it! I found that black and brown girls weren’t happy about their hair texture. Therefore, I wanted to dispel that. I’ve spent my entire adult life mentoring and building confidence in girls, so this was a no brainer for me.📚
I am going to rest my mind a few days and start on my second book. I have plenty of ideas, but as an indie writer, I’m educating myself as I go.🥰
This wasn’t suppose to be a long post, so come buy books to gift, bless your tummy from the amazing food trucks, and get lost in all the local vintage finds. You won’t regret it!🤣 #stevensstoriescb #thepuffythingbook #pvdflea #indiewriters #kidslit #childrensbooks #hairtexture #authorsofinstagram #providence #195districtpark

Memorial Park stands today as a peaceful, sculpture-filled tribute to those who gave their lives in wars and conflicts around the world. 🇺🇸
Swipe to see a glimpse back to 1983 — photo courtesy of @pvdnowandthen — looking east from what is now the intersection of Washington Street and Memorial Boulevard. While much of the area looks familiar, you’ll notice the World War I memorial once stood in a very different spot. For decades, it was the centerpiece of a notorious traffic circle known as "Suicide Circle." Today, the memorial has been moved a few hundred feet to its rightful home in the heart of Memorial Park, where it rests in quiet honor. 🌿
Swing into May with a week full of downtown fun: live music, art shows, beer garden hangs, and sunset celebrations!

What a day, Providence!
This Earth Day, our community showed UP — together, we collected over 325 pounds of trash from our parks and river!
Here’s to cleaner streets, greener spaces, and the power of coming together for our city.
Thank you @partnership4pvdparks & @dnapvd for leading the efforts!
Here’s to cleaner streets! Thank you @rhodeisland.dem!!

This Earth Day, we’re reflecting on the beauty, resilience, and importance of green spaces in the heart of our city.
Our parks are more than just places to gather—they’re living ecosystems that clean our air, support biodiversity, and give us room to breathe, connect, and grow.
Let’s keep caring for them, together.
