We are thrilled to announce the Downtown Providence Park Wayfinding Project—an exciting initiative designed to enhance the vibrancy, connectivity, and accessibility of our city’s core. Thanks to a generous grant from Commerce RI and in collaboration with the City of Providence and our downtown partners, this project will transform our public spaces with eye-catching colorful banners and improved navigation tools.
Stretching from the Point Street Bridge to Waterplace Park and extending through Biltmore Park, Burnside Park, and Kennedy Plaza, these enhancements will give downtown Providence a fresh, engaging look while helping residents and visitors better explore the city.
The project will roll out in three phases:
- Phase 1: Installation of Double-sided Banners
- Phase 2: Digital Wayfinding and Signage
- Phase 3: Activations of Parks & Banners
Banners will adorn the downtown Providence parks, serving both as navigational tools and reflections of Providence’s rich cultural and historical heritage. QR codes on banners will provide easy access to interactive maps, event schedules, cultural insights, and directories for nearby businesses and restaurants.
