Jim, I ride the Blackstone trail but have never made it to Central Falls by the trail. I did enjoy a visit touring an ambitious real estate project and enjoyed learning a bit about Central Falls. The city's financial work is a big task but the neighborhoods seem to be going about their business and doing all right. The view over looking the Blackstone River from the base of Cogswell Tower in Jenks Park is impressive and played a role in King Philips War. I understand there are a few occasions when the vault or cavern under the tower is opened.

I'll look for the route along the Blackstone Trail through Central Falls and on to Providence.
