Bulldozing McVinney and reconnecting the street is the only way to activate this space. Anything else is lipstick on a pig, and effectively a strategy to push out the poor people that linger there. Also the trees there are perfectly fine and a shelter for said people during the unrelentless...

I think Procaccianti Companies had some leadership issues?... but I could be wrong. For sure they made some shit investments though. Thinking RI needed our own version of Wawa or Buc-ee's was definitely a dumb dumb move.

The city does feel kinda dirty right now. We just had heaps of snow melt and there is shit everywhere. I would say it's atypical. And yes Mathewson outside that church that feeds people in need is kinda always gross and sketch. Bless that church though. South Providence, like many Providence...

This is so true. It's giving remote for sure. Lots of buildings like this where I grew up in Newfoundland.

Looks like parcels 14/15 are moving ahead. And some boring proposals for 8/8a: https://www.195district.com/documents/

They did an excellent job IMO. I am down there a few times a week

At it again... it's giving lawn now. RIPTA is, again, studying a Providence bus hub. Here's where.

Wow - what a downgrade. Was excited for Pawtucket. This looks like garbage.

Looks to be some significant changes to the 27 East River project: https://www.providenceri.gov/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/24-041MI-27-EAST-RIVER-prelim-submiss.pdf Glad it won't be a giant grey box.

Just walked by and they have like 100 bollards around whatever electrical thing is going on. But, there is fencing around parcel 14/15 site as well. 195 meeting this week said they were getting financing together and got some sort of tax credit situation secured. Hopeful thinking but would love...

I am really happy the Washington St. project is moving fwd but think it's unfair for the city to use the current iteration of that project to demonstrate its commitment and a win. Lincoln has been trying to move that forward for manyyyy years. Here are the specs...

Plans/new project for 885 Westminister attached to Classic Cafe: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1NdQwBwKecj455kHGblCeUnXA1iHcn8mZ/view?fbclid=PAZnRzaAMqdFlleHRuA2FlbQIxMQABpxwO3uTIePVXpQTfmRJaGl8RsRoMvRgJqEzbfIJVHs0XoHfEqUudHAVN_k_o_aem_SipOTZodvP3qHJWgGwpaXA 74 units. Bring it on IMO!

That hot mess needs to have the obnoxious numbers removed, tacky shutters burned and get drenched in paint. I’m also enthusiastic about the One Neighbourhood project. Also for news for their Del Toro project. While across the highway I hope will stitch Atwells more with what’s going on around Sims.

Does anyone have any intel on "The Green District" https://www.thegreendistrictpvd.com/ within Olneyville's Dike St. area? Seems more aspirational but I can't locate much.

Anyone know why parcel 42 (the one where the fugly fane tower was proposed) is fenced off?
