Grant's Block Park, located at the corner of Westminster and Union Streets, has reopened with a fresh new look. Completed in May 2024, the revamped park features a 1,730 square-foot dog park, new cedar seating, beautifully landscaped beds with nine new trees and flowering perennials, and enhanced lighting throughout. Designed by Cornish Associates, Ryan Associates, and Union Studio Architects, with Landscape Creations handling the build, the park is a welcoming addition to the Westminster Street Corridor.

Consistently delicious, oberlin_pvd never disappoints! Perfect spot to just sit at the bar for a few small plates on a summer night. Looking forward to doing it again, because their Chitarra Cacio e Pepe has my heart ❤️❤️❤️. Also, Oberlin was just named to eater`s "Essential New England Restaurants", well deserved!

✨ #ThrowbackThursday – Lighting Up Grant’s Block Park! ✨
F&S Electric, Inc. is proud to have played a role in the revitalization of Grant’s Block Park, located at the corner of Westminster and Union Streets in downtown Providence, RI. Completed in May 2024, this transformation—led by Cornish Associates with design collaboration from Ryan Associates, Union Studio Architects, and Landscape Creations—has turned this space into a welcoming community hub.
Our team enhanced the park’s atmosphere with expertly installed overhead string lighting and perimeter lighting, creating a warm and inviting glow that encourages people to gather, stroll, and relax—day or night. 💡🌆

We’re all daydreams about spring over here. To say we’re excited about oberlin_pvd and gifthorsepvd opening in the Trayne Building is an understatement. Sitting out on the patio here - best seat in town. Can not wait.

This right here is the most recent addition to the evolving landscape on Westminster St. The four-story addition to the Trayne building just welcomed longlivebeergarden for the 2021 season. It’s quite a lovely scene watching them transform the space into a vibrant outdoor gathering every Fri-Sun while the weather permits. Cheers to almost summer! 🍻

Earth Day in the books, and our community showed up 🌎💚
kids loved the booths curated by Keri King for @creatureconserve which paired artists and scientists together to create engaging dialogue about wildlife conservation in RI.
From bulb + tree planting, trash clean-up, and neighborhood connection with the @DNAPVD… to an afternoon at @pvdmayor’s Earth Day Celebration—cleaning the river, getting creative with arts + crafts, enjoying great food, and learning more about the exciting transformation of Point Street Pier.
Small actions, big impact. ♻️✨
