The committee approved three resolutions that rename or honor specific places in Providence. One creates Esscence Tyler Christal Memorial Square, one officially renames Corliss Park to Jeanie Lippitt Circle, and one ceremonially renames Burnett Street to William J. Rose Way. These actions mean the names can move forward for the city’s formal process and signage changes. The William Rose measure was amended to include the middle initial “J.”
