Again, nice twist, but lashing out at me with baseless personal attacks due to your failure to understand urban street culture...well, it's not a good look.

I’ve missed words here and there in the past, but I was really lost with this one.

Twins Pizza by a mile over Caserta. Best single slice is Napolitano. This post is about cheese pizza not novelty pizza.

Thank you for expanding upon your prejudice against all younger people who live in the city, really helps paint a clearer picture of your opinions

Pro tip, if you ever want guaranteed (or as close as it gets) audio get your seat near the sound engineer’s booth.

That's the exact way I feel every time I see a musical at PPAC. Comedy shows are usually fine. But I've left each musical frustrated because I could not tell what the hell was going on.

Housing built by connected developers using taxpayer dollars with zero oversight? That $50M might get you 25-30 studios, if you’re lucky…

That’s great! Do u know when would be a good time to start going? Like should I wait until closer to the end of the semester or do they just have stuff out all the time and I could go now?

It only drives up housing costs in that you can squeeE more rent out of each unit so the cost of the building goes up. In other words: more people crammed into one space makes BUYING more expensive but not renting. Wannabe east siders are griping that they can’t compete on the housing market with investors renting to students.

Caserta.
Their toppings are of higher quality than what you will find at most other places in Providence.

It was difficult to hear the words last night but between what I could understand, and the amazing music, I must agree!!

>because boomers think housing with multiple college students isn't great to live near
One need not be a boomer to recognize that this is true. And everyone posting here knows it's true. You're simply concerned with housing costs going up. And that's definitely a valid concern, but the argument being used is dishonest and hypocritical.

That mall is paying a million now. GoLocal sucks. The latest proposal is shifting the bill to around 4.5 million. Not sure where it stands

I think this take requires pretending that downtown retail on storefronts is a thriving modern concept and not some shit that died everywhere

They are trying to say this is to prevent the cost of housing going up but it will do the exact opposite. Out of town college kids who come from money will be able to afford being spread out. This will make a shortage of apartments for those who grew up here and have seen rent triple over the last 10 years. Whoever is pushing this is either an idiot or got the idea from one of those student housing companies that have been taking over Providence.
