Walking Providence, Rhode Island : College Hill & Brown University Campus

I take a walk in Providence, Rhode Island through the neighborhood of College Hill and the Brown University Campus. Providence is the state capital of Rhode Island, the smallest state in the United States. I really enjoyed the charm, old architecture, and large campus of Brown University. The College Town was diverse and had multiple food options available.
From Wikipedia:
"Providence is the capital and the most populous city of Rhode Island. It was one of the first cities established in the United States. It is located in Providence County. It is the third largest city in the New England region. In the 2010 census, the city proper population was 178,042. The area is the 37th largest metropolitan population in the country, with an estimated MSA population of 1,600,856. This is more people than the population of Rhode Island due to the area reaching into southern Massachusetts. Providence is at the mouth of the Providence River, at the head of Narragansett Bay. The city's small footprint is crisscrossed by streets at odd angles and has a rapidly changing distribution of residents."

    Since I used to be a "College Tour Guide" for both Fordham and Lehman in THE BRONX, I think that the alumni would appriciate "Action Kid" making an appointment ahead of time in order to join a personalized college tour.

    I was just there today and I too am also a fan of Lovecraft. I wanted to walk to his grave from the commuter rail station but I didn't have time. I actually live in Massachusetts in what's known as Lovecraft Country believe it or not. I live in Manchester by the Sea which is on the north shore of Boston. Lovecraft loved the area and it's in most of his works. But yeah Providence was great just wish I had more time there. I plan on going back in the fall.

    @@ActionKid A walk down Benefit Street to see RISD would be great. Carr House on the corner of Waterman St holds the nature lab, nearby the RISD museum. The Providence Athenæum is at 251 Benefit, and on the corner of Benefit and Planet St you'll find Edgar Allen Poe's house. RISD has always been rated #1 or #2 Best Art Schools in the US. I was surprised you skipped it except for a short mention of a building on your walk through downtown and the river. Hope you check it out.

    Thanks for another video from Providence Road Island. Both College Hill and Brown University are beautiful. Even dare say better kept than Harvard and it’s college area. It has a beautiful suburban feel to it but It’s still a bit quiet and not many people are there. However it’s somewhat more populated than the area you were in in the last video. Hopefully things will get better once the pandemic is behind all of us. Thank you again for your hard work and thank you for sharing this beautiful place with us. Stay safe and have a good weekend

    Kids will never need to 'go to school' again. The internet will close this university. It will exist on the Internet and be just another school.
