About Kent

Heights

Kent Heights, located between Pawtucket Avenue and the Ten Mile River, is a residential and hillside East Providence neighborhood with mid-century ranch streetscapes and wooded river-edge pockets. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Pawtucket Ave corridor near the Kent Heights School area, where small storefronts, takeout counters, and everyday services set a steady, local rhythm. Housing leans toward postwar capes and ranches with tidy setbacks and mature trees. The Ten Mile River Greenway frames the eastern edge with a linear path feel and seasonal foliage. Nearby, the Looff Carousel at Crescent Park adds a classic coastal-daytrip note. The East Providence Senior Center and Weaver Library anchor civic life with classes, events, and quiet corners.
