At the grand opening ceremony, Mayor Ken Hopkins told 12 News this location is part of a “big project” to revitalize the area.
“This was the former Narragansett Brewery property that we’ve been developing for the last five years,” he explained. “Now it’s coming to fruition with Sonic and Season’s Market, and the car wash, we’ll have a new auto tool company opening pretty soon right behind this building.”
There are currently two other Sonic locations in the state: Smithfield and Warwick.
