About this map

The Providence metropolitan core is documented here at a mid-century peak of urban density, showing the complex industrial and residential landscape of the state capital. The Woonasquatucket River and Moshassuck River converge near the State Capitol, while the Seekonk River and Providence River define the eastern maritime edge. The waterfront is an intricate network of commerce, featuring State Pier 34, Wilkes Barre Pier, and the Harbor Junc Wharf.
