Providence is a city built by lunatics, governed by Satanists, inhabited by murderers, and haunted by ghosts.

Providence Point Environmental Center
The Providence Point Environmental Center at 91 Point Place Road was built in the early 1940s by federal government officials - literally, the building was designed by biologists and built by US Army reservists. This, according to the few believers of the story, was the reason it was first constructed lacking proper ventilation. They say that two US Army biologists suffocated overnight on the first night the building was in official use, dead due to the plants' exchange of oxygen for carbon dioxide. (A story so ludicrous it is either patently false - but then how did the two men die? - or is due to the unusual nature of the plants, another hotly contested story.)
If the Center was indeed built for war research, a factory intended to churn out biological weapons, all of that was apparently quickly abandoned. The Center was sold to the city of Providence in 1942 and now serves as a tepid tourist attraction staffed by volunteers. The Center also grows daffodils to benefit cancer charity in the spring and poinsettias to benefit the local homeless around Christmastime.
No unexplained activity has been reported since ownership shifted to the city.
