Providence, RHODE ISLAND - Exchange Place - 1917: Kennedy Plaza (formerly City Hall Park, Exchange Terrace, or Exchange Place) is a rectangular central plaza and the geographic center of the downtown Providence, Rhode Island. It occupies a focal civic space, between the City Hall and the Federal Building. Following a traditional colonial pattern, the Plaza has served as a transportation hub since 1847. In 2017, mayor Jorge Elorza announced plans to transform it from a transportation hub to a public space that would serve as a \"true civic heart\" of Providence. Today, Kennedy Plaza is bounded by Exchange Street (\"Little Wall St.\") on the northeast, Fulton Street on the southeast, Dorrance Street on the southwest, and Washington Street on the northwest. Surrounding the Plaza are Burnside Park, the major ice-skating center. Its mobile diner has been driven into the Plaza and parked next to City Hall nightly since 1893. On the east edge of the plaza sit the three buildings - One Financial Plaza; 50 Kennedy Plaza; Industrial National Bank Building - that comprise the center pieces of the city\'s skyline. This Divided Back Era (1907-15) postcard is in good condition, but there is some edge wear and a crease to the card\'s lower right-hand corner. Berger Bros. Providence, RI.
