Revitalizing the Providence, Rhode Island, Waterfront: The Smallest State’s Showcase
The Rhode Island Department of Transportation (RIDOT) began a highway relocation project approximately 30 years ago which would begin a revitalization of the Providence waterfront. Historically, the downtown area in the city of Providence (Providence) was separated from Narragansett Bay (bay) and the Providence River by Interstates 95 and 195. Relocating the highways would not only ease traffic flow but would enable the city to provide access to the waterfront that was previously isolated, making undeveloped and underutilized land available. This paper examines the challenges and planning that are required for design of a successful multi-use waterfront facility while meeting sustainability goals in a constrained site. Through the utilization of thoughtful collaboration and unique landscaping, the new urban greenspace will create an effective urban and community interface supportive of multimodal transportation.
