Just lovely. Looks like a generic Miami Beach condo now. Just what any downtown in the Northeast needs for a signature structure. Ugh.

Does anyone here live in those condos, I am curious how that all works. Is there a HOA situation?

Depends on what angle you see it from. Coming up over the hill on Allens, by the small Dunkin...driving across the steel bridge near the new Trader Joes? Are you ignorant, or just trolling?

The vintage shop actually grew and has since twice out grown space. They are Cured Collection at the Providence Place Mall.

Why do NIMBY complain so much providence needs more units to bring costs down and maybe people to make the city interesting

The Senate wanted it, the Zoning Board didn't approve it, the Council overrode the Zoning Board, and the Senate was so annoyed the General Assembly stripped the City of zoning jurisdiction over the I-195 land.

Coming from a design field you give the, "to the moon" design that gets everyone super excited to get approval and over all positive sentiment. Then through DD it gets watered down due to cost and over all feasibility. This will probably not be the last iteration/concept.

IIRC the city did give approval but bypassed it's guidelines in doing so and then a citizens group challenged the city's approval but lost in court.

The new design looks significantly worse than the old one. Yuck.
