Pocasset Manor senior living building to get first upgrades in 20 years

PROVIDENCE, R.I. (WLNE) — Tuesday morning in Providence, Mayor Brett Smiley and members of the congressional delegation will mark the beginning of a renovation project for seniors living in Pocasset Manor.

The 11-story building has 82 units for senior living, but it hasn’t been updated in nearly 20 years.

Residents will see new kitchens, bathrooms, elevators, a new roof and full Wi-Fi at the completion of the renovation.

The leaders will start the project Tuesday morning at 11.
