    "Federal Hill is widely regarded as Providence’s premier “Little Italy” neighborhood and for good reason! It combines the charm of quiet, tree-lined residential streets with Providence’s most celebrated dining and entertainment districts. You’ll still hear Italian spoken here and many older Italians still live in the neighborhood, especially on Vinton and Sutton streets. Step outside and stroll to artisan bakeries, charming cafés, acclaimed restaurants, lively wine bars, authentic Italian markets, fresh pasta and cheese shops, and unique speakeasies and music venues. You’re also just minutes walk from the Amica Mutual Pavilion, Trinity Rep and other performing arts venues, the Providence Place Mall, WaterFire, the Riverwalk and Downtown Providence. The 92 trolley takes you over to Brown University, RISD, in minutes. One of Federal Hill’s best-kept secrets is its value. Unlike the East Side, where rental prices are often driven up by intense demand from Brown University students, Federal Hill offers the same walkable urban lifestyle at a more affordable price. You get all the convenience and character of city living without competing for housing with College Hill students. As such, You’re also not living amongst throngs of students. For those traveling without a car, the location couldn’t be more convenient. Providence Train Station is within walking distance, offering easy rail service to Boston in about an hour, while I-95 is just a minute away for quick access throughout New England. Federal Hill offers the perfect blend of very walkable neighborhood charm, world-class dining, vibrant nightlife, exceptional value, and unbeatable convenience."
