Description

Downtown Woonsocket in 1979, featuring a view of Harris Pond and the Blackstone River. The Oak Hill Cemetery and the World War II Veterans Memorial Park can also be seen from the photo. Around the time this photo was taken, Woonsocket became the host of Autumnfest, a Columbus Day weekend festival, which it is most famous for.

Woonsocket is also home to CVS Health Headquarters, as well as the original first free public library in Rhode Island, which is currently housed in Woonsocket City Hall.
