Demolition begins at downtown Providence’s former Rialto Theater
The historic Rialto Theater is being demolished in downtown Providence. A deal calls for the cleared lot to transfer to the neighboring Hotel Providence.
Demolition is underway at the former Rialto Theater in downtown Providence, with ownership of the site set to transfer to the adjacent Hotel Providence once the lot has been cleared.
The theater’s removal will make way for a change in ownership of the property, but no further plans for the site were included in the available details. Hotel Providence is a boutique hotel next door to the Rialto lot.
