From Wikipedia:
Providence is the capital and most populous city of the U.S. state of Rhode Island. One of the oldest cities in New England, it was founded in 1636 by Roger Williams, a Reformed Baptist theologian and religious exile from the Massachusetts Bay Colony. He named the area in honor of "God's merciful Providence" which he believed was responsible for revealing such a haven for him and his followers. The city developed as a busy port as it is situated at the mouth of the Providence River in Providence County, at the head of Narragansett Bay.
Providence was one of the first cities in the country to industrialize and became noted for its textile manufacturing and subsequent machine tool, jewelry, and silverware industries. Today, the city of Providence is home to eight hospitals and eight institutions of higher learning which have shifted the city's economy into service industries, though it still retains some manufacturing activity.
At the 2020 census, Providence had a population of 190,934, making it the third-most-populous city in New England after Boston and Worcester, Massachusetts.
That's Elmwood Ave not Broad St.
Thanks for the ride around town, Mike. I only saw what could be seen from I-95 and I-195 when I was there three years ago. The thing that impressed me then was driving thru a tunnel underneath City Hall on I-195.
Try getting out in the country. I know. I saw some beautiful backroads in Tiverton and Little Compton.
That tunnel is in Fall River MA.
@@edwardrasmussen3465 Thanks for the correction. My great-great-great grandfather was from the area but came to NC about 230 years ago. That was my first time up there and I was just trying to learn the lay of the land.
Welcome to providence you came here at the wrong time of the year. It’s much nicer in the summer with the water fire. There’s so much more to see that you messed in the downtown
Went to Lupo's back in the day!. Riccotis on Atwell Ave.
Your "Broad Street" is really "Elmwood Avenue." At the 1:25 mark you cross "Greenwich Street" where I grew up.
Providence was far more vibrant from the early 00's back. I grew up there in the 80's and 90's and it was basically like the movie New Jersey drive most days in some neighborhoods lol, tons of corruption, the mob and drugs everywhere. Providence has the good the bad and the ugly all in one package. A small city with tons of street cred and historical significance. Walking or biking is the only good way to experience Providence ✌🏽🇺🇲
Should have gone down broad, Elmwood is a deserted Island. Broad St. Is like baby NY filled with Dominican music and Cuisine
I live in Cranston/Providence..i can relate
Well, cue the Family Guy Theme Song!
Oh wait, that's Quahog! Giggity! Lol
@2:35 Turning left onto Sprague Street would lead you to one of the best breweries RI has to offer: Long Live Beerworks. And @6:30 turning left down the alley street would lead you to Malted Barley, a great beer and pretzel bar. @8:33 Rogue Island is on the left. If you can't tell what my travel highlights are in general now you know lol.
Lived not far from Benefit Street around 20 years ago. It was a great spot but with my current job which is pretty much work from home it doesn't matter as much, and I am in the suburbs now.
the first st you drinving on il elmwood ave not broad st
Downtown looks pretty big to be a small city..
I see that you have made it to Providence Rhode Island
I see it's not to far from the Rhode Island/Massachusetts state line
Fun fact: while it's close to the RI/MA border, Providence does not directly touch the border. Two cities are between the state line: East Providence to the east and Pawtucket to the north. The two state capitals that do touch its state border are Trenton NJ and Carson City NV.

Quohog Lololol
Shita boring you amos i love there.
Elmwood Ave. Not broad lol
Too bad you were driving too fast
Quite boring
Definitely my least favorite U.S. city. Was very underwhelmed when I was there. Newport is much better in terms of things to do and beautiful scenery. Skip Providence.
