Downtown Providence (Aerial)

Description

Downtown Providence from above, looking west across the Providence River into the cityscape. This 1976 view shows how Interstate 195 used to divide the city and occupy crucial downtown real estate. It was relocated in the 2000s to follow a more direct rout to Interstate 95, crossing the Providence River adjacent to the Fox Point Hurricane Barrier.
