I believe the subtitle on the sign is correct. I checked the GIS maps put out by the City of Providence and it says its owned by the nursing home. Again, I don’t think anyone will care - i think its just to deter the homeless and would be needle users.

I know the state bought up a bunch of land along the shore to extend and connect the bike path to the Washington Bride bike path. So it’s possible the state owns this land and hasn’t been updated on that map? The state was buying just strips not whole lots. Could also be a deeded easement, which would give state some property rights but probably wouldn’t show up on the GIS map.

I’m not sure honestly. Like I said, the shore is full of junk and trash. I doubt I’ll get into any trouble. At worst a slap on the wrist or a ticket.
