TRAC Builders served as the general contractor for the transformation of the historic U.S. Rubber Company building into the WaterFire Arts Center, a dynamic cultural venue in Providence, Rhode Island. This adaptive reuse project revitalized a 37,000-square-foot industrial structure, creating expansive exhibition, performance, and production spaces while preserving the building’s historic character. In addition to overseeing all construction activities, TRAC’s self-performance team played a major role in delivering the project’s success. We installed historical replica windows, completed concrete demolition, performed structural roof demolition and new installation, constructed a rooftop patio, and handled all interior framing. The completed WaterFire Arts Center now stands as an award-winning example of historic preservation and adaptive reuse, providing a permanent home for the WaterFire Providence organization and serving as a vibrant cultural hub for the community.
