The Planning Department’s waterfront charette runs from Monday-Thursday, at the Johnson and Wales Harborside Campus, as part of the city’s comprehensive planning effort.

Broadly, we’ll be trying to determine how best to use the Providence waterfront: where industrial uses are appropriate vs. where there should be housing or commercial structures vs. where there should be open space, and how to reconnect the city and its residents with the water.
