Exactly. There needs to be better options than just building more luxury/high priced housing and hoping it lowers the cost of other housing eventually. There needs to be housing built that addresses the need for lower cost rentals, not saying that luxury and higher priced properties can't exist as well, I don't think anyone is saying that it shouldn't exist, just that it can't be the only thing people build in the city.
And yes the design of this building was awful it would have stuck out like a sore thumb and ruined the appeal of our skyline.

I agree with the points about housing, but the providence skyline is a crumbling and empty Superman building and a hotel connected to a shopping mall.
