Charles grew from an industrial hub into a busy suburb
Shaped like a jewel, you might say that Charles in North Providence is a diamond that came out of the rough. Route 146 runs along the west end, while Interstate 95 runs along the east, making this a highly connected neighborhood. Charles always aimed for being this connected, but it took a lot of trial and error. Industrial businesses arrived in the late 19th-century, drawing residents and growth to the area. Streetcar service was needed to facilitate the influx of residents, and, by the 1930s, this neighborhood began to shine. Today, Charles is a bustling suburb with a strong commercial and business streak still running through it.
Chalkstone Express Mart is a convenient stop for groceries in Charles.
