Constance Whitherby Park

Witherby Park, also known as Constance Witherby Park, is a small historic park located in the Wayland neighborhood of Providence, Rhode Island. The park was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1975.

The park was donated to the city in 1929 by Mr. and Mrs. S. Foster Hunt in memory of Mrs. Hunt's daughter from her first marriage, Constance Witherby, who died at the age of 15. It was landscaped by Ernest K. Thomas, who was the Superintendent of Parks at the time.

Occupying the space between Waterman Street and Pitman Avenue, across from the Salvation Army, Witherby Park is a heavily wooded area covering just over 100,000 square feet. The park features many trees and several park benches, providing a quiet, green space in the urban environment.

The park once featured a bronze sculpture called "A Memorial to Young Womanhood" or "The Spirit of Youth" by sculptor Gail Sherman Corbett. The statue depicted a young girl in a windblown dress, commemorating Constance Witherby. However, the statue was relocated to Blackstone Boulevard near its intersection with Clarendon Street towards the end of the 20th century after being vandalized.
