The Neighborhood
Rumford feels like a small New England town. Downtown Providence is four miles away.
Getting Around
East Point sits in the Rumford/Phillipsdale neighborhood, a stretch of pre-1960 single-family homes, ball fields and river frontage on the eastern bank of the Seekonk.
The hospitals, the universities, the airport and both interstates are all a short drive — without living on top of any of them.
The Master Plan
East Point is a neighborhood, not a building. Twenty-seven acres of former industrial waterfront, remediated and master-planned by Churchill & Banks, now being built out across six kinds of housing, for rent and for sale.
That mix is deliberate. A neighborhood where people rent, own, downsize and start out on the same streets holds up better over twenty years than one built for a single kind of buyer.
The city agreed. East Point was awarded $18.8 million in tax-increment financing from East Providence for the roads, utilities and common areas — repaid out of the taxes the finished neighborhood generates.
Walkable frontage along the Seekonk River, open to everyone.
Freshwater frontage on the eastern edge of the campus.

Site Plans
The apartments sit at the centre of the plan, with the courtyard behind them and the river frontage beyond. Everything on these two sheets is within a five-minute walk of your front door.

What’s Next
Fifty-eight more apartments on the same campus, with a fourth-floor roof terrace. Construction begins in 2026 with delivery expected in late 2027. When both buildings are complete, East Point will have 128 apartments and electric vehicle charging on site.
