Governor Lincoln Chafee welcome to Central Falls. On Monday my good friend Councilman James Diossa ask me if I would cover an event for him on Wednesday, which I said yes too. The event was a tour he gave to the Governor of Rhode Island to local business on one of the main streets in Central Falls; Dexter Street.
The City of Central Falls has recently gonna bankrupt so this tour "was organized to highlight the vibrancy and determination of local business owners to succeed despite the City’s recent bankruptcy filing, and to better connect Central Falls businesses with economic development resources offered by the state."
