The Wedding Cake House is one of Providence’s most iconic treasures — a stunning 1867 mansion that later became a couture dressmaking studio run by two remarkable sisters, Anna and Laura Tirocchi. Read more in stories!
It’s one of the many stories woven into our You Belong Here Wayfinding Project, celebrating the people and places that shape our downtown.

Annie Smith Peck grew up in Providence and became one of the most determined explorers of her time. After graduating from Rhode Island Normal School, she was denied admission to Brown University because she was a woman. She refused to stop there and earned her degree from the University of Michigan, becoming a respected scholar and lecturer.
She taught in Providence and at Purdue, and her greatest achievements came after she began mountaineering at forty four. In 1895 she climbed the Matterhorn wearing trousers, challenging the expectations placed on women. At fifty eight she summited Peru’s Mount Huascarán, a peak later named Cumbre Aña Peck in her honor. At sixty one she carried a Votes for Women banner to the top of Mount Coropuna. She continued climbing and educating well into her eighties.
Annie is part of our You Belong Here Wayfinding Series because she showed how far determination, skill, and courage can go. Women like her expanded what the world believed was possible. ⛰️✨💛
