Developer eyes E.P. for water park home

EAST PROVIDENCE – A former manager of Warwick’s long-shuttered Rocky Point amusement park has set his sights here as the home for a water park in the Ocean State, WPRO reported last week.
David Cascioli – who this past summer pitched Johnston as a home for the park before ditching those plans – told the radio station that he is considering land in East Providence. Cascioli said the city reached out to him, and suggested he look at what it had to offer, a move proposed by a City Council member.
East Providence is currently looking to redevelop its waterfront. While the city has not specified which parcels would be available, Cascioli told WPRO the ones up for grabs are too large. •
