i didn’t think i would get the opportunity to keep taking photos in university, but i’m grateful that i was able to as pr officer for ccb. this was one of the photos i took for our ice skating event, which was our second collaboration with the second-year board. still not sure who decided it was a good idea to host a four-hour outdoor event during the winter, but the day was beautiful and i had so much fun! my ankles hurt but the insomnia cookies made it all better. miss my ccbabes very much right now 🥺

Our first and second graders are back on the ice! We encourage learning experiences beyond the classroom, and #iceskating is a fun activity that engages the mind and body and can help improve balance and coordination! Plus, it`s always great to see everyone come together and have a good time. #schoolspirit #iceskating #fun #PVD #providencerink #parentvolunteers

By 1983, when this photo was taken, the railroads that had dominated the city for over 100 years were clearly past their prime. These overgrown and elevated train tracks would soon be removed and those that remained pushed underground. The tunnel that these elevated tracks led to would be closed and the bridge across the Seekonk River on the other side of the tunnel would be raised for the last time.

🌊 Waterplace Park: Where History Meets the River 🌉
Once the site of the historic Great Salt Cove, Waterplace Park was completed in 1994 and now anchors one of Providence’s most iconic public spaces. Connected to nearly ¾ mile of cobblestone-paved Riverwalk, this waterfront park features Venice-style bridges and winding pedestrian paths that sit just below the hum of city traffic.
🕯️ Best known as the heart of WaterFire, Waterplace Park comes alive in the summer with bonfires on the river and music that echoes through the city — a must-experience for locals and visitors alike.
