What a dumb and presumptuous name. Why not just call it what it will be, the Rhode Island State Laboratory?

Presume it’s temporary and someone is going to have their name on it someday

The area around the new state lab will soon finally be meeting the original employment expectations for the 195 Knowledge district. It is right next to the 225 Dyer Street building and diagonally across from the new Brown Med School building under construction. Will soon have a contiguous swath of three six+ floor buildings with good jobs.

It really feels like it's finally coming together too. There's cohesion, street level activity, and a sense of place.
