NEW: Large-Scale Revitalization Project Coming to Smith Hill

The Smith Hill Community Development Corporation (SHCDC), Dimeo Properties and Rhode Island Housing, along with Governor Lincoln Chafee and the Rhode Island Congressional delegation and their community partners will cut the ribbon on a major community rehabilitation and revitalization effort in Providence’s historic Smith Hill neighborhood.

The celebration Visions II will be held on Friday, June 15 at 1:30 p.m.

For several years, SHCDC has been working to transform vacant lots and foreclosed properties into safe, healthy homes for families in the community. Visions II – a joint venture between SHCDC and Dimeo Properties – has helped to stabilize the neighborhood by transforming 19 existing properties and one new building into 52 affordable homes.
