View up the Providence River towards Waterplace and the Basin. This is during a Waterfire celebration in September 2013.

A statue of theologian Roger Williams was built in the late 1930s.. The 15-foot tall granite statue commemorates Williams' founding of the state of Rhode Island and his promotion for religious freedom. The statue depicts Williams gazing over the city.

This is such a great place to get spectacular views of the city. The park faces west so the sunsets can be fantastic.
