I get where it is. I just think people overrate traffic around here a bit much

That whole trader Joe's/condo complex isn't designed or advertised for cars or whatever. They literally said in an article that it's built for walkability for local residents

I stand by that you can't just limit anything pvd to just providence. Providence is small but the metro area extends far. Not only that alot of people from outside the city work or go to school in providence, even in public schools you have alot of kids from out of the city. so you kind ot exclude alot of people by just keeping it providence only.
Big Asian population in Cranston and I'm sure alot of them socialize in providence, especially since there's nothing to do in Cranston lol

This looks pleasant and straightforward with right angles and sightlines, and only one road.
Take a look at the one in Coolidge Corner in Brookline.
They have a police officer directing traffic in the intersection(s?) to keep the gridlock from overflowing out into several blocks each way.
It's also one of the smallest TJ lots, and not at all any normal shape.

People complain about parking but what about the sidewalk entrances and bike/scooter parking? Most people are likely not going to be driving in.

I’d try calling Columbus energy over in I think it’s Swansea.

Just a quick note: yes, you say the system can run off either fuel, but just make sure there isn’t some conversion that is necessary first.
Because propane operates at much higher pressure than natural gas, it uses smaller orifices. Using natural gas with propane orifices results in a weak/inoperable system, using propane with natural gas orifices can result in explosion.

Yeah, they're concentrated in the Smith Hill, Mount Pleasant, Olneyville portions of the city. I had friends in Classical, Mount Pleasant, Central and Hope High. I think most of us have moved out from these areas so hence we are not helping with diversification in Providence.

Hey! Don’t give away our best park! RWP is in Providence. (Although, it is down by Cranston).

>I’m not seeing where the trouble is?
It exits directly onto the Wickenden St off-ramp. The construction taking up a lane of the exit has been messy….this seems to have disaster written all over it.

Get ready for this exit to be even more of a nightmare.
I have to use it every day. Definitely not looking forward to this.

I'm looking at you, Woodward Ave Park!

5.5% of people living in PVD identify as Asian, which is pretty small compared to other ethnicities (although it's the highest population in the state). Do you think having a large percentage of Asians in your graduating class speaks more to which neighborhood you lived in?

This is sooo true! I've seen some of the people out here and they are *fit*. Not that generic 2-3" in superficial height either where they have dumpy dad bods but still act elite. These people are ACTIVE! I can't keep up...lol
