The Armory and the District; 1997:

A look at the Cranston Street Armory in Providence, A historic structure listed as an Endangered Site by the National Trust for Historic Preservation, and the neighborhood surrounding it, known as the Armory district. This project was executed for a special exhibition organized by the Bert Gallery that took place within the huge drill shed of the Armory. This show helped to raise interest in the building, but as of 2003, it still sits vacant. Contact the Providence Preservation Society for more information.
