F&S Electric, Inc. is proud to have played a role in the revitalization of Grant’s Block Park, located at the corner of Westminster and Union Streets in downtown Providence, RI.

Our team enhanced the park’s atmosphere with expertly installed overhead string lighting and perimeter lighting, creating a warm and inviting glow that encourages people to gather, stroll, and relax—day or night. 💡🌆
