About Globe
District
Globe District, located between Downtown Woonsocket and Bernon District, is a historic and industrial Woonsocket neighborhood with brick mill blocks and river-adjacent streets. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Main Street near Market Square, where corner storefronts, cafés, and small service counters sit under old masonry facades. Former textile-era buildings and compact triple-deckers set a dense, walkable streetscape. Museum of Work & Culture anchors local history in a former mill setting. Stadium Theatre adds marquee-lit nights and a steady calendar of performances. Along the Blackstone River corridor, paths and overlooks frame the district’s working-waterfront past.
