Having the only view of the city from the highway being the back a giant ugly parking garage doesn’t exactly make the city look good either

Sure but OP wants to know about Providence and not Boston

Someone needs to find out the deets and tell us where and when

If the weather is good it just about the best spot in the city for a blanket and a read

I’m 100% for better public transit. Anywhere outside of Boston requires a car to live, it’s like a death sentence to not have one. The amount of stress cars have caused me especially when I was near the poverty line is insane. I hate them but I have to use them all the same.

It might be walkable to get a coffee or go to a bar or restaurant but unless PVD gets a huge influx of high paying jobs parking and driving will be important and let’s not pretend that TJs is a grocery store that anyone will do they bulk of their family shopping at. When I was in the neighborhood I was commuting to Northboro MA and my neighbor was the dean of admission for Clark U in Worcester. We all choose to come to this city because it’s great at affordable but let’s not pretend it’s some walkable utopia that we can just pretend can exist without the residents having cars. Don’t even get me started about parking bans for residents without off street parking too…

I was on the corner or Traverse and Sheldon. People park there to go to everything on Wickenden. I’m just speaking to the fact that yes the uptick in local parking due to inadequate parking at TJ’s will indeed be felt by the neighbors. However if I was still there I’d be really happy to be such a short walk so 🤷🏻‍♂️

I used to rent about a block from there and my apartment had no off street parking. Some days were awful circling a few block radius after work for 20 minutes just so I could park and go home for the night. I can’t see this helping

Providence is extremely affordable compared to both Boston and NYC which it’s in the middle of. Just saying something is expensive with little context like this article seems misleading

Ebisu also has a location on Warren Avenue in East Providence right off exit 1D on I195E

I used to drive through Kelly square in Worcester all the time that is scarily the worst intersection I’ve seen in my life

I’m sad her turnout was so low. I was excited to have her as Governor

There was a primary and there absolutely were better candidates but this is what the majority of primary voters and the fptp system gave us

I’m surprised at all the soccer fans here after all the hate threads against the new stadium telling me everyone hates soccer. lmao

Yup and with big storms parking bans can last be ke a few days and we might have a few a month so it sucks to not have off street parking. I complained to the city and they literally said “what kind of an apartment doesn’t have parking l?!”

Not terribly far but I don’t love having to do that in inclement weather. I was near Brook and Wickenden and had to walk the garage by Brown medical on Eddy. I think it was $25 per day

Ok , good

Get the yearly city pass because inevitably you’ll need to park on the street from time to time and you don’t want tickets. I’d make sure you have some off street parking if at all possible because of parking bans during snow storms. I had an apartment in Fox Point for years with no off street parking and I had to pay to park in that lot in the jewelry district and walk all the way home and back. Big pain in the ass

This is America. I always feel like I’m not welcome anywhere except a public park if I’m not spending money if I’m honest

I feel like the entire square is only for paying restaurant customers. I’ve never gone there to enjoy the square or area because of this perception.

Hey I voted Gorbea 🤷🏻‍♂️

He’s got sock puppet accounts for sure. Go local sucks
