Phillipsdale
Late 19th-century homes to 2020s construction
Multi-family Colonial Revivals built in the 1890s are common, as are single-family Cape Cods, split-level and ranch-style homes built between the 1930s and 1970s. Early 2000s condo buildings line some of the busier streets, like Roger Williams Avenue. The Riverfront Estates at East Point development features condos and single-family homes built in the 2020s. With muted sea-colored shingle siding and traditional coastal cottage architecture, even the 21st-century builds fit Phillipsdale’s historic Rhode Island aesthetic. Condo prices range from $270,000 to $360,000. Single-family homes start at around $320,000 and quickly rise to $950,000. Individual units within multi-family homes typically sell in the condo range, while whole multi-family homes tend to fall on the higher end of the single-family range. Riverfront Estates homes with water views usually list for over $1 million.

East Providence School District public schools, private options nearby
Phillipsdale is zoned for Myron J. Francis Elementary, Martin Middle and East Providence High.

Martin Middle and East Providence High, the district’s only high school, earn B-minuses. East Providence High has been around since the late 1800s, but the current building opened in 2021, featuring expanded athletic facilities and larger classrooms.

Bus routes, Interstate 195 connect East Providence to Providence
RIPTA buses pick up from stops on Wilson Avenue, providing rides around East Providence and to Providence. Major stops include Rhode Island Hospital in Providence, about 5 miles away. Driving to the state capital takes less than 20 minutes via Interstate 195 across Washington Bridge. Mateus says bridge traffic is usually heavy, so getting across during rush hour can sometimes take anywhere from 45 minutes to an hour. Locals can bypass the traffic by taking Henderson Bridge across the river instead.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
