Disclaimer: I'm not affiliated with the business in any way, I just live nearby and am excited for tasty treats and coffee within walking distance.

Oak Bakeshop 'soft opened' this week, self-described as a "Jew-ish bakery and cafe." They've got pastries, baked goods, coffee as well as espresso-based drinks like lattes. I had a sticky bun and peanut butter & jelly cookie this morning and they were divine. Coffee is great too. There's no set menu but they have a decent spread of sweet and savory options so there will probably be something you'll like :)

They're over on Cypress & Camp and open Tuesday to Sunday, 7am - 2pm. As a heads up, if you want baked goods you'll want to go on the earlier side - I went on opening day around 11am and everything was sold out (still had coffee though!)

Yeah, but it probably goes well beyond this post.

I mean more about post-white flight and the conversion to car culture. Cities became something you drive into and not something that is livable and workable.

The area by the pedestrian bridge is already revitalized and has been built up a lot since even the pandemic! You have to make the city exciting and livable to attract people to live and work here!

The current design of the city chops half of it off creating a physical segregation boundary between different neighborhoods. The amount of parking lots downtown creates expensive living conditions and fewer green spaces. The lack of city pressure on greedy real estate companies drives up COL and creates an obvious economic barrier for people to move here. Not to mention the ugly and untenable nature of the areas surrounding 95!

None of these things individually make a city boom, but all of them are especially attractive to young adults and new businesses. All of which aid in revitalizing and making a walkable (and more importantly LIVABLE) city atmosphere.

Am I missing something?

Lol still sucks walking there... I've only been on past two Saturdays that could have a lot to do with it too.

Moonshine Alley

I believe Narragansett & Moniker brewing are both showing a lot of the games

What a gross response

There are car stereo system installation businesses in the area that occasionally test. Could be that. They are nice and will accommodate if you need quiet.

The reason Providence hasn’t had rapid development is not because there’s an open interstate running along one side of downtown.. Most major cities have this

I was a huge fan of Anchor Therapy in Lincoln… they were doing telegraphy, but idk if they are still doing it

Edit: obviously I meant teletherapy… but I’m keeping it there cause it made me giggle!

>Sounds like it’s in Spanish

Sums it up right there.

Isn't it Better than 9 am when the streets are full ?

We went to Jane Wall in East Greenwich and really liked her.

No one in particular but I highly recommend seeing a psyD or a phd rather than a social worker (MSW) or other qualifications. Having someone who really understand psychology and not just mediation can be very helpful.

Did you ever ask yourself "why?" instead of ascribing an effect as the cause?

God look at how absolutely disgusting the parking lots are too. Car first culture has ruined cities.

At 2000 hours this was Trader Joe's docking lot
