When you see it...

Providence is fucking old, even older than New York (Not New Amsterdam, but there's nothing left standing of that or pretty much any of NYC's original buildings anyway). We still have a couple of buildings from the 1600s still standing, and tons of foundations that are still supporting "newer" buildings from the 1700s.

It's where all the non-Puritans that were kicked out of Boston came, and the row of 200 year old diverse churches up and down Main Street are pretty much a giant FUCK YOU to Massachusetts, we also have the oldest Synagogue I believe because Roger Williams allowed Jews when no other colony would, not even Virginia or New York.

The Revolution also started in Providence Colony with the first shot fired on the captain of the HMS Gaspee down in Warwick, but they don't teach you that. Providencians were evil, mean, drunk non-Puritan heathens who weren't allowed credit for anything, of course.

Pictures from upstairs! Blurring was unintentional, the light up there was total shit. I need to go up there during daylight I think because my camera phone wanted nothing to do with it.
