Located where the Providence River flows into the Narragansett Bay, Riverside is a charming community in the southern portion of East Providence. Riverside residents enjoy a small-town atmosphere, with friendly neighbors and scores of local shops, cafes, and restaurants.
Riverside is the proud home of the landmark Crescent Park Carousel—an ornate carousel built in 1895 and listed on the National Register in 1976. Locals enjoy convenience to the East Bay Bike Path, which runs through town and connects to the rest of the Providence area. While Riverside residents enjoy the town’s peaceful atmosphere and quaint offerings, nearby Seekonk and Providence provide a host of modern amenities to the community.
