Fox Point is a charming historic neighborhood located about three miles southwest of Downtown Providence. As one of the city’s oldest neighborhoods, Fox Point retains its quaint charm with old fashioned architecture in a variety of styles including beautiful Victorian homes for rent. The neighborhood rests at the point where the Providence and Seekonk Rivers meet. Today, Fox Point is a trendy locale that beautifully juxtaposes the old and new.
Fox Point is highly walkable, and many stores are just a few blocks away minutes from most homes. Fox Point is only about a 10-minute walk from Brown University, which makes the neighborhood feel youthful. Fox point is known for its wide variety of election amenities. Many residents head to Wickenden Street, a quirky thoroughfare with vintage boutiques, record stores, laid-back cafes, art galleries, and more. Hope Street and Ives have plenty to offer as well.
Fox Point also hosts India Point Park, Providence's former harbor, which bustles with activity most days of the week. In the summer, head on over to listen to a free rock concert in the park or enjoy traditional cuisine at the Cape Verdean Independence Festival. While there, sign up for lessons at the Community Boating Center and learn how to guide a sailboat down the river.
