DiPrete Engineering worked with Churchill & Banks, Union Studio Architects, Sage Environmental, and John C. Carter & Company to redevelop a former petroleum shipping terminal into a mixed-use development including a traditional New England-style residential waterfront community and a medical office building.
Kettle Point, located in the City of East Providence along the Providence River, included 218 multi-family units and 62 single-family duplexes. Kettle Point is also home to University Orthopedics, a 90,000 square foot, medical building and surgery center.
Kettle Point’s design emphasizes public access and open spaces. The development includes a community center with amenities and direct access to the East Bay Bike Path. A network of paths, parks, and a public parking area for the East Bay Bike Path is provided.
DiPrete Engineering’s scope of work included boundary and topographic survey, engineering design, construction oversight, and permitting through the City of East Providence, the Rhode Island Department of Environmental Management, the Rhode Island Department of Transportation, and the Coastal Resources Management Council.
