The Downtown Providence Park Network (DPPN) formed in 2021. Our mission is to activate, connect and enhance public spaces in the downtown and along the waterways of Providence to spark civic pride, fuel economic vitality, attract visitors and showcase the city as a world class destination. We work across the public spaces that run from Waterplace Park to Greater Kennedy Plaza to the Michael Van Leesten Pedestrian Bridge. 


We envision a network of dynamic, interconnected public spaces and waterways that serve as a model for urban vitality in downtown Providence. Strengthened by enduring public and private partnerships and sustained investment, these spaces enrich lives and draw in residents and visitors to cultivate a sense of belonging, build traditions, and drive community well being through the energy and participation of the people who use them daily.

VALUES

Collaboration: amplifying and leveraging the unique strengths and interests of our communities and partners
