Planes flying parallel to Hillsgrove

Hillsgrove made its name by being home to the state’s largest airport. It was once called Hillsgrove State Airport, but now it goes by T. F. Green Airport. "Other people that live in the flight path complain about it, but we live so close they fly parallel to my house instead of over it,” says Juli McIntosh, a Realtor with Re/Max Advantage Group who has lived in Hillsgrove for 13 years. “When I have people over and we’re outside, I’ll say, 'I‘ll give you $20 if you hear a plane flying out here.’ I’ve never had to give $20.” McIntosh says this neighborhood isn’t often called Hillsgrove anymore. Instead, it is just referred to as the area by the airport. This busy stretch of Warwick has remnants of an industrial past that is being revitalized in favor of a more commercial lifestyle.

Homes built in the 1950s through 70s

Hillsgrove consists of a few residential pockets around the airport. Homes sit on larger leafy lots that are big enough for a backyard pool. "It's a good mix of cape cod styles, ranches and raised ranches,” McIntosh says. Most homes were built in the 1950s through the 1970s, but some have interior renovations featuring modern fixtures in both the kitchen and bathroom. Prices start at $250,000 and go as high as $450,000. In the last 12 months, a total of 26 houses sold, spending about 20 days on the market.

Home of the T. F. Green Airport

“This area will be pretty alluring if you have to travel a lot,” says Stefanie Carr, a Realtor with Lila Delman Real Estate. “T.F. Green is one of the best airport experiences you can have.” In 2010, a quarter-mile sky bridge connected the terminal to a new train station, which helps commuters reach Providence and Boston. The drive to Downtown Providence will take around 9 miles, which can take up to 35 minutes in heavy traffic. The neighborhood is primarily car-dependent, but the Rhode Island Public Transit Authority runs a few buses throughout the area. Hillsgrove has a CAP Index crime score of 3 out of 10, slightly lower than the national average of 4.

Dining on Post Road and Sandy Lane

Post Road on the west end was originally residential, but with the growing importance of the airport, it has become a key commercial corridor. Restaurants, in particular, are well represented here. Open since 1954, the Greenwood Inn focuses on classic American and Italian dishes. The décor lends itself to making this place a true local hangout: a stone fireplace serves as the centerpiece, while nostalgic photographs hang on the walls. Sandy Lane on the east end is another thoroughfare loaded with commercial amenities, particularly everyday conveniences like Walgreens. For groceries, residents have access to Dave’s Fresh Marketplace. And there are more small businesses branching off from here that are frequented by locals. Antonio’s Bakery has desserts like raspberry cinnamon sticks and double flavored danishes. Next door is Charlie’s Deli with savory treats like pepperoni rounds and Italian subs.

Greenwood Inn in Hillsgrove offers the perfect spot for a flavorful meal with loved ones.
