    This is one of those American cities that display character and individualism in the architecture, rather than the identikit and formulaic towns that seem to be common in the USA. The roads have a more natural flow to them instead of grids and the streets look pedestrian friendly - narrow enough to cross safely and be seen by the driver - and clearly not designed around the automobile. Amenities should be reached within walking distance and it seems that there are not too many cars on the road. I certainly would like to see Rhode Island when I visit the United States of America. Thanks for sharing.

      DEADLYDONGERable West end is a little nutty. But overall Providence is very docile.
      Best to avoid olneyville. Lol.

      This is Anglo America, it's a different kind of america, most people are descendants of the English, the architecture is very British aswell

      I was raised there and can tell you: the population was mainly Italian, Portuguese, and Irish.

      Yes, I look at cities all over the country and it feels like I'm there. Look at the Pacific Coast Highway in CA. I always wondered what it looked like and now I know.

      Im stuck in suburban maryland for now, but I enjoy seeing videos of Seattle. I once lived there a year, fell in love with the place, made a vow to return even permanently settle.

      I hope you get to go again when there is a Waterfire event on the Providence River. The ceiling of the Capitol building is gorgeously painted by hand. Its breathtaking.

      That's Downtown Providence. South Providence is the hood or the less economically fortunate area. If you visit your should go to North and East Providence if you're looking to be at the rich area. And Downtown Providence where the Mall is at

      Gina C If you do come, walk Benefit Street. It's the most intact colonial street in the whole country. All the buildings are original, nothing has been taken out for modern businesses and a lot of homes date back to the 1700s. Then walk 2 streets up to Thayer Street for the most diverse cultural mix of food and shops you will probably ever see. Greek, Indian, Thai, Italian, Japanese, Lebanese...everything you can think of. Then head back down to see Waterfire downtown at night..you will never see anything like it again in your life.

      Olá. Feliz em ver pessoas do Brasil admirando uma cidade tão bela quanto Providence. Lovecraft de fato tinha total razão em ser tão encantando com este lugar. Pretendo visitar os EUA algum dia, e Providence está no meu top 3, para não dizer que ocupa o lugar o 1º lugar, em lugares que pretendo visitar, e quem sabe, até lecionar, futuramente. Pretendo fazer doutorado em estudos literários, se conseguir uma vaga para lecionar na Brown, seria uma ótima mudança de vida. Afinal, depois do estrago que o PT fez no país, não consigo ver nenhuma melhoria por aqui por pelo menos 20 anos.
      No mais, abraços, e fique com Deus. Tenha um ótimo 2018 !

    Many of the parents in Providence ignore traffic laws with their children. Many of these parents are civil servants. Youth in Rhode Island deserve law-abiding, ethical and conscientious civil servants. Their future depends upon it. What do you think? Should traffic fines be doubled in capital cities? Imagine law-abiding streets and adults in Providence! Imagine!!!
    Kids, if your parents ignore traffic laws, pray out loud before every family meal, "Lord, help my parents obey traffic laws, I love them."
