PROVIDENCE – The original idea of the Downtown Providence Parks Conservancy was to create a pedestrian-friendly environment, promote arts and culture and bolster economic well-being through the city’s various downtown greenspaces. However, that concept has been fully on pause for close to three years.
But the idea of creating a network to bring various programming to city parks has not been paused. Now, there’s hope that a new independent nonprofit organization can get the public engaged in activities around these greenspaces.
