Riverside Mills is a Brownfields site located along the Woonasquatucket River. Brownfields are dirty, sometimes dangerous places where factories or other businesses used to operate but have since been abandoned. The City of Providence is working to clean up the Riverside Mills site so that it can be used as part of the Woonasquatucket River Greenway. Right now it is NOT a safe place to walk or play. However, within a few years you might be able to ride your bike there and have a picnic! Take a look at how the site looks now and think about how it could look in the near future.
 
The remaining building at Riverside Mills was once an office building.
One entrance to the Riverside Mills site. The gates were put up to prevent further illegal dumping.
They have since been stolen.
