    Greendale Redevelopment Initiative - Saint-Gobain Site | Worcester

    I believe that the Abby Kelly Foster Middle School building at 10 New Bond street may have once been the Heald Machine Co. It made grinding machines and was eventually bought by Cincinnati Milacron in 1974. It was closed in 1992. I toured this facility in the mid 1980's when a student at WPI...

    Developer seeks to build 'tiny apartments' in Providence

    The developers have already scaled back this project due to neighborhood blowback. They then presented their revised plans at a recent public forum where they encountered continued NIMBY opposition. Would not be surprised that many of these same people often complain of about the...

    Downtown Plainville

    Given where this is located about halfway between the Emerald Square and Wrentham Outlets shopping areas, I do not think a big scale development was likely. This seems to fit in well with what Wimpy Kid series author Kinney has already done with his Unlikley Story bookstore. I can remember...

    Poet Hill Residences | 9 Hemans Street | Worcester

    Given this development is high atop a hill, the surrounding long time neighbors should have greater concerns for future flooding. More new building and development combined with the ever more frequent high rainfall events are wreaking havoc on already well established neighborhoods all over...

    Pawtucket-Central Falls MBTA Commuter Rail Station | Pine and Barton Streets | Pawtucket

    After some initial demolition work, everything stopped on the Dexter Commons project. I have seen little evidence at the site or in the news that leads me to believe this project is actually progressing. I fear the onset of Covid, lower commuter rail numbers with WFH, and higher...

When both phases are complete, the total project will have approximately...
