Unite two determined northeastern cities, introduce a new commuter rail station and transit hub, infuse a thriving art and innovation culture, leverage underutilized mill space, and unveil 150 acres of available land. The result is a vision forged from grit and authenticity—an integral element of a burgeoning metropolitan area where people choose to reside, investors and developers discover new opportunities, and neighborhoods thrive with environmental sustainability and cultural energy.
The TOD Vision Plan outlines how the cities of Pawtucket and Central Falls can harness the growth potential and economic revitalization brought about by a new commuter rail station.
To breathe life into this vision, Leonardo Design and DK Communications collaborated to craft a hip identity, complete with a whimsical graphic visual. This identity seamlessly extends across digital applications, signage, collateral, and marketing materials. A website design further showcases Conant Thread as a haven where creativity flourishes. Rooted in a legacy of risk-takers and original thinkers, the district serves as a melting pot for investors, entrepreneurs, artists, designers, scientists, technicians, brewmasters, and chefs—collaborating across disciplines in an environment of experimentation and innovation.
Pawtucket, with the highest artists per capita in Rhode Island, hosts an annual arts festival, celebrating the rich creative and cultural community embedded in the city and its surroundings.
