Lovely walk from Point St to the Michael S Van Leesten Memorial Bridge along the east side of the Providence River…flowers, places to sit, shade, breezes…and pollinator hotels!

Walking at the Providence river today checking out the waterfowl and the trash. So sad that nature has to share space with litter and broken bottles🤬 Providence can be such a dump! #swansofinstagram #swans #waterfowl #mallards #litter #providence #providenceriverwalk #providenceriver #providenceriverbridge #littering
If there were ever a day to open the windows for a bit and get outside for a walk this January, today was it!

The “Washington Buildings” once occupied the spot where the Hospital Trust Building is now, so we’re looking at what is today the northwest corner of Westminster and Memorial Blvd. Above the building, you can see the tower tops for the original Union Station, so we know this photo was taken before 1896, probably in the late 1880s or early 1890s.
