The Armory District of Providence, RI is one of the citiest best kept secrets. It's a 20 minute walk away from downtown (40 to Brown University or 15 by bike) and mere minutes to I95 and RT6&10. The Armory itself (pictured on the right) is on the National Register of Historic Places and is perhaps the most beautiful structure in the city. The former parade ground abutting the Armory is now one of the cities largest parks. The property's central location is made evident by the annotated map provided to new tentants. Providence Armory
This building, located at 68 Dexter St., Providence, RI 02909 (Maps: static, google) was built in 1866 and is directly across the street from the training ground. There are three huge apartments in the building, and all have fabulous, unimpeded views of the Armory and its well-manicured park grounds. The units are approximately 1600 sq. ft each and are replete with architectural detail appropriate to the age of the house (solid-hardwood flooring, original molding, excellent trim and woodwork, 9ft. ceilings, etc.). Past and current tenants include Brown and RISD faculty, teachers, professionals, and graduate students. Each unit has been carefully restored by a local craftsman and each includes its own in-unit clothes washer and dryer, dishwasher, and garbage disposal. Rent includes water, sewer, off-street parking, storage, and WIFI internet access (802.11b); furnishings, electricity, and gas are the tenant's responsibility.
