Olneyville, located between Federal Hill and Johnston, is a historic and industrial Providence neighborhood with brick mill blocks and a river-cut street grid. The neighborhood’s character concentrates at the Olneyville Square junction of Westminster Street and Plainfield Street, where taquerias, bakeries, corner markets, and repair shops keep the sidewalks in motion. Longtime anchors include New York System (Olneyville), the Atlantic Mills complex, and the Wanskuck Library at Olneyville. Triple-deckers and compact storefronts sit beside former factory buildings, giving many blocks a workaday, mixed-use feel. The Woonasquatucket River Greenway threads nearby, adding a linear path for walking and biking. Westminster Street’s long corridor ties the area to downtown-facing views and late-day traffic hum.
