Did the mayor announce this anywhere? I'm finding nothing on Google for "Providence Knowledge District".

 Oops! I was wrong. Found this Mar 24,2009 Doc about "Knowledge District" http://tiny.cc/lfYM7 Moved Business From Bos to Providence for 2 years ago and I have found news in Providence sort of like deep mine excavation! Wish we had better news resources. Sincerely, Tony Russ www.designprov.com

I would have named it the "innovation" vs. "knowledge" district but whatever, one thing is clear -- there is no future for jewelry manufacturing here so it's nice to see the name look to the future rather than the past.

I agree with you on that, Angus - seems a more forward and positive-thinking name.
