Take a Visual Tour of Cranston's Past

The Cranston Public Library has posted a series of historic photos and advertisements on its Facebook page.

A trolley car making its way over the Dean Street Bridge. A coal mine in Sockanosset. Giant fish in the Pawtuxet?

They are all part of Cranston's past and they are all on display on the Cranston Public Library Facebook page. Take a stroll down memory lane with the library's collection of photos and advertisements dating all the way back to the early 20th century.
