Grow Smart RI | The Providence Foundation

Formed in 1974, the Providence Foundation took on the naysayers who had already written the City’s obituary to become a force for the transformation and revitalization of downtown Providence. Under the leadership of Dan Baudouin for more than 20 years and supported by 140 of the leading companies and institutions in Rhode Island, the Providence Foundation has been a consistent leader through eight city administrations as an advocate for difficult, but necessary projects. Its leadership of innovative public-private partnerships led to the dynamic landscape we know today, including the Capital Center District, WaterPlace Park, the relocation of I-195 and railroad tracks, the Convention Center, Providence Place Mall, a revitalized Westminster Street and a restored PPAC. All of these initiatives, in which the Foundation worked closely with city, state and federal governments, now serve as the backdrop to the City’s national accolades of “Best Small City in America” by Architectural Digest; “America’s Favorite City” by Travel & Leisure Magazine; and “America’s Coolest City” by GQ Magazine. #ShareCommunity is Grow Smart RI's award-winning, statewide digital storytelling campaign designed to boost state self-esteem among Rhode Islanders by spotlighting those putting smart growth principles into practice towards better communities.
