Florence Gray Center

New year, new look

Hello and Happy New Year to our community!

As we walk into 2026, more changes are going to become visible and updates coming more regularly. The Community Learning Center Team is excited to be sharing not just construction updates, but also announcing new partnerships, new programming opportunities, and hopefully some community events. 

For our first update of the year, we've got pictures of completed plumbing and framing. It may not sound exciting but these pieces being finished and electrical work being almost done means that now walls, doors, and fixtures can start going up. 

In the main lobby of the building, the old wood floors have come up and the sub-floor is being prepared for all new flooring that will match the rest of the building.

Wall framing and electrical are going up and almost complete in the Gallagher Wing. These spaces will include offices for staff, meeting rooms, and a space for the public to reserve and conduct telehealth appointments, meet 1:1 with healthcare navigators, or to meet with a visiting nurse. 

This is the rough work for a hallway being built between the community room and the Gallagher Wing space on the first floor of the building. Opening up this space is important to the flow of the building and making the two parts of the building feel more like one cohesive space. 

Stay tuned for more updates!

The Florence Gray Center is located at 1 York St Newport, RI 02840
