(Providence, RI) -- The geographic center of Providence is being reimagined in plans that were made public on Wednesday. London-based design firm Arup teamed up with the city to come up with a number of changes to the Kennedy Plaza area. They include replacing the current ice rink with a larger skating surface that would double as a splash park during the summer. The project, which is estimated to cost 140-million dollars, is being promoted in conjunction with a new plan from state transit officials for a multi-hub bus system, replacing the current central Kennedy Plaza hub.
