Upon its completion, the building, originally designed for multiple occupancies, housed other manufacturing companies, including the current tenants and owners: Clark and Combs, who took over the building when the A.T. Wall Company moved their plant to Warwick, R.I. in the early 1970s. Today, the jewelry district, spliced by Interstate Highway 95 and 195 constructions, is entirely dominated by commercial and industrial use. Amidst the majority of brick manufacturing plants and offices, the concrete building on Clifford Street still stands out as a modern construction, bridging Providence’s industrial history with the present.
