Department Of Public Property Providence Capital Infrastructure Investment Plan

Making Providence a city that works for every resident and business owner has been a top priority for Mayor Elorza. It means building recreation centers that are welcoming to our families and creating modern accessible public buildings. We are building a new Providence by doing business differently and by making meaningful investments across our city with a long-term vision in mind. By doing so, we are investing in the residents, in our business owners, our families and youth who depend on these resources daily.
