URI does too. 3rd largest research reactor in the country, although not owned by URI. None of them are. Owned by the Nuclear Energy Regulatory Commission (or something like that.)

Appreciate it. I’ll have to post the map when I can, its an old fire insurance map. Definitely in Providence.

Not sure about Brown, but there's a 60 year old reactor at the URI Bay campus.

If by these conditions you mean very little snow and warm (above freezing) temps then yes.

MIT still has it. So does UMass Lowell.

I dunno, but I heard when I was a kid that MIT had something similar in Cambridge. Mini nuclear reactor for research. Maybe they are related somehow?

I’m sorry, how is scurvy a fake dive bar? Taken over by 3 local punks 15 years ago after it was the worst dive bar (green bar). They decorated how they wanted and only painted the building black. Drinks are cheap and you aren’t going to get some fancy cocktail list.

Yeah, they will clear all the roads, it just takes some time. Sideroads will get done way later than main roads.

I think that can and has been said about a LOT more places than any one bar.
