Campaign: Connect21

In its heyday, the 20th century South Street Power Station generated electricity for the city of Providence, RI. Today, the historic, riverfront building is part of a revitalization project expected to generate educational and economic development in the city and across the state.

The South Street Landing project began earlier this year, making way for a state-of-the-art nursing education center, student housing, office space, and more.

Senator Jack Reed, National Grid RI President Tim Horan, and others, tell the story of how cooperation and partnership can knit a city.
