Ward 4 – Charles and Wanskuck (North End)

Ward 4 is considered the North End of Providence, which includes the Charles and Wanskuck neighborhoods. At the end of the nineteenth century, an expanding mill industry led to influx of European immigrants, especially Italian immigrants. This expansion of the population led to the further development of the North End. Today, both the Charles and Wanskuck neighborhoods are home to a strong Italian cultural community as well as a rich history of industrial labor.
