Rhody Awards Preservation Project Award - Tiverton Four Corners

Tiverton Four Corners’ historic charm is a delight to anyone passing through town, but that wasn’t always the case. While many had a hand in its transformation starting in the 1960s, when Jim and Roz Weir arrived in the early 1980s things really started to take off. Over the next 40 years, they restored or built 13 buildings, adding a traditional style Meeting House for arts and education and a sculpture garden open to the public. Curating shops that would draw foot traffic and create a vibrant town center, the project was viable thanks to the Weirs’ vision, determination, and ingenuity.
