The story of Providence is told by its buildings. Our city's downtown blossomed during America's Gilded Age, and has well-preserved examples of Art-Deco, Beaux-Arts, Neoclassical, and many more architectural styles. But this tour goes beyond bricks and windows: peer into the past by learning some of the human stories behind the facades. This tour also explores the city's vibrant arts and cultural scene, a key ingredient of its dramatic turnaround from mid-century urban decay to regional arts center. Experience and learn the inspiration for Providence's most breathtaking murals: these massive works weave into the city’s visual landscape for a result unparalleled anywhere in the United States.

My girls and I did this walking tour last weekend. It was just right, filled with lots of good historical info about Providence but neither too long and tiring nor was the tour filled with excess minutiae. Our guide was knowledgeable and made the historical stories fun. He also recommended a great spot for lunch.
