6. Probate Court

City Hall just after its dedication on November 14, 1878

Address:  Probate Court, City Hall, 25 Dorrance Street, Providence RI 02903

I selected this 1878 photo because, aside from being majestic, it gives the viewer a clear view. All the available contemporary photos had problems, view obscured by trees, etc. and only partial views of the City Hall. The building is the same today as it was in 1878, but the statue has been moved.
