They closed the inside at the start of the pandemic and just had to go windows. They didn’t start actually renovating until this summer. They were closed closed for a couple weeks in August which I assume is when they did the work that affected the to go window….so it hasn’t been that long.

This is exactly it. Thanks for summarizing the area (and the city) so well!

You'll likely hear more from your neighbors than from Conley Stadium. Ortoleva is a little bit of a cut-through street, but it's not high speed from what I can tell. It's not fancy, but it's a fine neighborhood.

I live nearby, off of Cathedral. I only hear stadium noise if I'm in my yard. It's never been loud enough to bother me.

District Hall at 225 Dyer Street. Free coworking place but a quiet place to study with wifi and comforts.
Upstairs at Yoleni’s during non peak hours.

Former Long Islander here: I’ve been really digging the bagels at Tasty’s in Plainville, MA. They even have egg bagels 💕

Hill and Harbor in EG are the best in the state. I highly encourage you to try them.
Great parking lot too, plenty of spaces.

Blew out right eardrum at a Helmet show. I've seen at least 10K shows, but that's only happened once.

That's really good to know. It was always so packed going there. Practically had to fight for a table.

Since it wasn't announced and there was no banner, it was a warn open. Not too busy to turn away, the upstairs doubled the seating!

Awesome. Was it crowded? I may have to drop in tomorrow. Haven't been down since pre-pandemic.

From 11am, they did a lot of work to open a dinning room on the second floor!

Dr Susanne Saslaw at Wickford Veterinary Clinic just off Rte 4 near Quonset. She did two tricky surgeries on my old dog that reputedly have at best a 50% success rate and she nailed both. Could not recommend her more highly ❤️
