Pawtucket City Hall
Located at 137 Roosevelt Avenue, Pawtucket and on the National Register of Historic Places, Pawtucket City Hall is a prominent Pawtucket landmark in the Art Deco style of the 1930s, the building is composed of three distinct segments: a four-and-a-half-story main block, with a low-pitched curb roof, running north-south parallel to Roosevelt Avenue and culminating in a 209-foot-high central tower; and two short, flat-roofed wings. The northern wing contains the Fire Department headquarters, the southern wing, Police Department headquarters.
History of The Baldwin Loop Walking Path
The Baldwin Loop Walking Path, established in 2017 by The Empowerment Factory, is the first walking path in Pawtucket. It is highlighted during the Healthy Living Community Event each year and has since become a beloved community asset. The path winds through the area surrounding Baldwin Elementary School and features artwork created by community members and local students.
Residents are encouraged to use the path for exercise and engage in various activities accessed through QR codes placed along the way. Since 2017, the Baldwin Loop Scavenger Walk has been an integral part of the Healthy Living Community Event, promoting both physical activity and community involvement.
In 2024, The Empowerment Factory will debut new artwork along the path, featuring historic locations throughout Pawtucket. QR codes will provide information on each location, enhancing the educational aspect of the walk. The scavenger walk, scheduled from September 1 to September 7, promises to be a highlight of the 2024 Healthy Living Community Event.
