Partnership for Creative Industrial Space (PCIS)
The mission of PCIS is to facilitate artistic and small
business growth through real access of space in the city
of Providence. We work to preserve and provide affordable
and sustainable commercial space in Providence, through
partnering with the real estate market, advocating policy
at the city level, and developing spaces for the artistic
and small-scale industrial communities. These efforts connect
the local creative sector with revitalization efforts that
directly impact the fabric of Providence, its community
and its attraction as a destination.
In partnering with developers, architects, preservationists,
planners, advocates and the real estate market, we seek to
accomplish this mission through the following short and long
term goals:
- Facilitate access to affordable and sustainable commercial
space
- Advocate policy that encourages responsible development
of creative industrial spaces while integrating community
accountability
- Act as educator in building awareness of the benefits
of these policies to the direct recipients
- Serve as a resource and support to the City of Providence's
Department of Planning for information and data
- Develop a commercial building into affordable creative
industrial spaces as a feasibility model
