Like Rockefeller Center But Cooler

Another fun addition to downtown Providence. This area used to be exclusively a giant grungy RIPTA depot and the skating rink is a huge improvement. It's very fun for kids on cold winter nights, though I have no idea what they do with it in the summer. Swimming pool?

Fleet Skating Center

Located by the old bus station, with unlimited ice skating and skate rental for under $10 per person, on a sunny day in the winter outdoor fun doesn't get much better than this.

My boyfriend Rick and I worked off our lunch at Mama Teresa's by skating around this nice-sized rink for a couple of hours. They play top 40 music and occasionally call for all-girl, all-boy, or couples-only skating. If you're a family, this is perfect entertainment as there were many children on the ice. It's also fun for couples, groups of friends -- basically for anyone who is young at heart and looking to spend some hours outside. There are two monitors who skate the rink -- when I took a tumble he was by my side to help me up in a flash.

There are also a snack bar, picnic tables, and benches along the outside of the rink for those who wish to take a break.
