Kennedy Plaza
1 Kennedy Plaza, Providence, RI 02903
Kennedy Plaza is modern Providence’s main hub for transportation — as many as 69,000 people move through this site daily. Created as Exchange Place in the 19th century, this plaza has always served transportation needs. Thousands of people stood here to see President Theodore Roosevelt, Harry Houdini, and presidential candidate John F. Kennedy. Today Kennedy Plaza remains a gathering place for the community, anchored by three city parks, including The Providence Rink, which features ice skating, recreation, music and arts.

The Whys of the Work - written by Ben Willis
Spring found a way to arrive. Now that daily “commutes” have become walks just for the sake of getting outside, it’s easier to notice the symptoms: birdsong, hyacinths, the green halo of budding trees. These are vital reminders of all that exists unbound by the anxieties of our life indoors.
The “what,” “how,” and “when” questions that commandeer this indoor anxiety wait patiently at the door: what is our path back to ‘normal?’ How do we get there? And when? These feel a little like the “what,” “how,” and “when” questions that occupy 95% of our professional life as architects: what mechanical system meets our space constraints? When do we need to finish these drawings? Zoom, Teams, or GoToMeeting?
These kind of questions map out our work, but their daily piling up can separate us from the “why:” why have we committed to the work of physical places? Why do we do architecture?

History
A Civil War memorial, the Soldiers and Sailors Monument currently sits in its third location, which is approximately the same as its original location when dedicated in 1871. When the monument was relocated to the center of Exchange Place in 1913, the height of the pedestal was doubled, from 5 steps to 10, and the cannon balls were separated from the canons. In 2001 the monument was returned to its original height when it was moved back to the west end of what is now Kennedy Plaza, but the cannon balls went away. Photo is circa 1925.
