About William South Canning Boulevard-Rhode Island
Avenue
William South Canning Boulevard-Rhode Island Avenue, located between Main Road (RI-77) and the Sakonnet River shoreline, is a residential and waterfront Tiverton neighborhood with salt-air views and a patchwork of marinas. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Main Road corridor near the Stone Bridge area, where boatyards, seafood counters, and small local storefronts set a working-coastal tone. Local pillars include Evelyn’s Drive-In for classic roadside fare, the historic Stone Bridge spanning the Sakonnet, and the Tiverton Four Corners arts district nearby. Housing leans toward classic New England capes and ranches mixed with river-facing cottages. Side streets feel quiet, while the water keeps daily life oriented toward docks, breezes, and sunsets.
