Quonset Business Park Supports 5.8% of Rhode Island Jobs and Generates $7 Billion in Economic Output A report by economist Ed Tebaldi reveals that Quonset Business Park now supports 5.8% of jobs in Rhode Island, equivalent to one in every 17 jobs statewide, while generating $7 billion in annual economic output and $2.2 billion in household income.

Quonset Business Park is punchin’ above its weight! Supports 5.8% of RI jobs—1 in 17—and pumps $7B into our economy yearly. Proof we can build big without Big Gov babysittin’. What’s your take on Quonset’s impact? #RhodeIsland #Quonset #LocalEconomy

RI Ready Funding Still Available for Business Attraction and Job Creation The Rhode Island Ready (RI Ready) program, an extension of the Quonset Site Readiness model, continues to offer funding for preparing industrial sites in communities like East Providence, West Warwick, and Westerly. This initiative accelerates development of underutilized properties to attract new businesses, expand the tax base, and create jobs for Rhode Islanders. The RI Ready team recently promoted the program at the League of Cities and Towns’ annual convention.

Yo, RI businesses, still got funding up for grabs with RI Ready! Think East Prov, West Warwick, Westerly—let’s get those sites rolling for jobs. Why wait for red tape when you can build now? #RhodeIsland #EconomicDevelopment #Quonset

Quonset’s Renovated Pier 1 South Opens to Boost Auto Imports and Offshore Wind Commerce The Quonset Development Corporation announced that the renovated **Pier 1 South** at Quonset Business Park is officially open for business, expanding Rhode Island’s capacity to handle rising **automobile import volumes** and specialized **offshore wind cargo**, while also supporting increased offshore wind vessel traffic.[5] This infrastructure upgrade is positioned as a key driver of economic growth for the state by enhancing one of Rhode Island’s primary deep-water port assets, improving logistics efficiency for existing tenants, and strengthening the state’s role in regional clean-energy supply chains and maritime trade.[5]

Quonset’s Pier 1 South just reopened after a major reno. More cars rolling in, offshore wind cargo on the move. Big win for RI’s economy and clean energy game. What local biz do you think benefits most from this? #RhodeIsland #Quonset #OffshoreWind

What looks to be a surplus World War II Quonset hut. Lots of them were sold after the war and many are still in use across the US. I'm not sure what this one is currently being used for and I didn't want to snoop around since there were a bunch of guys working right across the street.

This may well be a surplus WWII Quonset hut. There were a lot of them sold after the war.
