Reply to comment by lovecraft_401 in Three years after closing for renovations, Providence’s Duck & Bunny plans to finally rebuild by rhodyjourno

If only I could think of a reason why construction would stop on a restaurant for 2 years in 2020 and 2021?? 🤔🙄

They bought it in July 2018 then closed it in March of 2019, a full year before Covid hit. They did absolutely nothing to renovate it until tearing it down in 2021.

Sounds like they were lucky to NOT have begun construction in 2019... I don't know why people get so upset; are you being materially damaged by the skyline of Wickendon St. Missing a building? Or just need to gripe about something?

It's not like it's dragging property values down. Housing is outrageously expensive on the East Side. Enjoy the extra parking spots available, then support a small business when it opens.
