The Thomas F. Hoppin House, located at 383 Benefit Street in Providence, Rhode Island, is a historic Italianate palazzo-style residence designed by Alpheus C. Morse in 1853. Considered one of the largest and most elegant houses in mid-nineteenth century Providence, it was home to Thomas Frederick Hoppin, a painter, sculptor, and engraver from a prominent local family.

Previously housing the Annenberg Institute for School Reform at Brown University, the mansion was sold in 2021 for $2 million with plans to undergo a luxury apartment building conversion. Known for its social gatherings and once featuring a bronze statue of a dog by Hoppin on the front lawn, the Thomas F. Hoppin House remains a significant architectural and historical landmark in the College Hill neighborhood.

South Street Station

The South Street Station, formerly known as The Narragansett Electric Company Power Station, is a historic electrical power generation station in Providence, Rhode Island. Built between 1912 and 1952, the Classical Revival-style building provided coal-generated electricity to the city until its decommissioning in 1995. Following its redevelopment in 2017 as South Street Landing, the 58,000-square-foot structure now serves as an administrative office and academic facility for local universities, including Brown University, Rhode Island College, and the University of Rhode Island. The project, costing an estimated $220 million and receiving significant state and federal tax credits, has revitalized the historic building into a vibrant educational and cultural hub in the city.Generated from the website
