City Walking Tour

I just walked all over Woonsocket. It was a mighty grand tour on this cold sunny gorgeous day!! I went from Rathbun to Main to South Main to Niagara Street to Clem Labine Field, up Mt Saint Charles and down, over to Hamlet Ave, to Cumberland Hill and finally back home.

The amazing curved brick mill building on Hamlet Avenue is being torn down. It's in the mill complex where the new middle schools are being built, opposite Gian Carlo's and Consumers Oil. Luckily they are keeping the tiny ornate Cashmere building beside it.

At Saint Anne's parking lot I saw spot lights and film trucks and a catering truck. A pilot is being made for a TV series called Empire State, about a family feud in Manhattan (real estate vs. lawyers), filmed here in our little Woonsocket!!
