Providence, RI is a wonderful city to visit for many reasons. The steeple situation makes it very easy to navigate around the town. The landmark hills are conveniently located on each side of the river. Downtown is mixed old and new buildings, but College Hill houses Brown University and RISD campuses. The preservation of history is important on both Federal Hill and College Hill, so the architecture is in fine shape. The trees that are blooming now enhance the beauty of both neighborhoods. Since I am a fan of both the building shapes and the trees I am very pleased to be here while the blooming is showing off the colorful past of the people who planted them.
