What parents say
"Providence Place is a fantastic shopping destination! It's a large, modern mall with a great mix of high-end stores, popular retailers, and unique specialty shops. The layout is easy to navigate, and the atmosphere is always lively but not overwhelming. I especially enjoy the variety of food options in the food court—whether you're in the mood for a quick bite or a sit-down meal, there's something for everyone. The parking garage is spacious, and I've never had trouble finding a spot."

"The parking lot is ridiculous! I understand that it’s under construction and that it needs to be refurbished, but it took me 20 minutes to find a parking spot because I had to wait in line and now I am sitting in the line to exit the building and I have now exceeded my two hours of free time and will be charged With all the inconvenience, The gate should be opened and no one should pay until the parking lot is completed so that there is no back up clogging the streets clogging the building, poorly thought out! Malls are already a deserted place you’re just adding to keep people away! I recomme"

"Pretty decent mall, lot of popular stores. Even though there are multiple stores, options do feel limited. Should consider upgrading the mall to become more tech savvy- like maybe getting kiosk with the location or map of the mall, it becomes kind of tiresome to keep looking and struggling to find stores."
