In 2016, we were all saddened to hear that a fire destroyed the Parks Department Grounds Maintenance Facility at Roger Williams Park.

Today, the Parks Department Grounds Maintenance Facility will officially be opened along with the renovated Carriage House. Roger Williams Park is one of the City’s most iconic places, and as a member of the Board of Parks Commissioners, I know how hard Superintendent of Parks Wendy Nilsson and her team worked to rebuild the space.

Public tours are being offered today from 9 am – 1 pm, pre-registration is required. You can do so by visiting the following site:

Congratulations to the Parks Department on these great new upgrades.
