I am old enough to remember going to see films at the Union back in the 1970's.

Their district development projections were far too optimistic in both scale and timing. Look no further than Providence for large scale district development progress for a similar sized city. The Providence Capital Center project kicked off in the early 1980's. It involved moving the...

If cutting costs were the main aim of Hasbro, they would stay in their current Pawtucket-EProv buildings as most of this space is owned by company.

Report: Polar Park tax revenues fell short last year as inflation slowed development https://www.telegram.com/story/news/local/2024/11/18/polar-park-tax-revenues-miss-expectations-last-year/76405264007/

The Polar Park bond repayment schedule was designed to gradually increase each year to coincide with projected increased tax revenues as construction projects within the district were completed. How will terminated/delayed/downsized projects impact this? Doesn't the potential shortfall for...

Polar Park attendance also appears to be in decline. It reached a total high (532,152) in 2022 and an average high (7,424) in 2023. This season saw a significant drop off of near 8% from the prior year. The team fell to 10th place in total minor league attendance after having finished sixth...

Population comparisons to Worcester have absolutely no merit. Worcester has far more land mass and space available for development. It is some two times the area of Providence. Its higher total population and growth rate are entirely tied to that. Providence is actually nearly twice as...

All the exterior walls and windows are in and just needs outside cladding. Building is buttoned up for continued interior work during the upcoming winter months. 10-06-2024 photo

Much of the 195 Park is now fenced off with prep work on the pavilion taking place.

There is already an existing location further south 12 miles down Rte 1 in S Attleboro that has been in operation for several years.

The 1011 Newport Ave property was originally built in 1950 as an A&P supermarket. I used to go there with my parents on shopping trips when I was very young. It was later bought by Hasbro and renovated to hold the executive offices with most of the staff being next door at the much larger...

Pawtucket's pitch to keep Hasbro in the city looks like it will be focused on potential sites along the river by Rte 95 that were to be part of the overall Tidewater Landing development. All of the possible parcels are presently owned by the city which would help facilitate the process. The...
