The RI side is comprised of a bunch of somewhat dense neighborhoods that end abruptly at the Mass. border. The mobile home park is actually on the Attleboro side. But maybe because of its proximity to the cloverleaf and shopping plaza —the stop in general feels like it will always be more...

It looks like construction on these units could begin in August 2024. Central Falls affordable housing project moving forward after filling funding gap
