Incredibly bleak. Beyond the windowlessness, there are only 11 bedrooms on the floor. Maybe 15 people will live here? That’s nothing compared to the number of people who used to work on a floor. There is no urban future for America without bringing office workers back to these buildings.

Nice. From a place where Bob Dole marched in the county seat’s 4th of July Parade in ‘96 and seeing a Clinton for President yard sign was like seeing a pig fly.

Shoutout to Providence for having their zoning code available as a PDF and not using those awful third party sites to host the code.

Watching Maine’s ‘High School Quiz Show’ and the team from Brunswick answered ‘Warwick’ to the question of what RI coastal city hosts a famous folk fest.

I don’t think I’ve ever been so baffled by a building construction from a building code perspective. Appreciate the railroad reference, tho

Working on a proposed building in Boston and at our Planning Board public meeting, the attendees were absolutely gushing over how much they support the project. All the Boston-experienced members of the design team were quite shook by it.

When the client sends you the lead image from that NYT ‘America the Bland’ article as an example of ideas to look at for adding color to the building facade 🥴

Wheaton, IL mentioned. All around an incredible loss that the CA&E is gone, but at least the ROW was preserved in its entirety for public use and the Wheaton shops became one of the biggest, densest, most transit-oriented new residential developments in all of the Chicago burbs

New construction duplex on the East Side of PVD. The homes will probably sell for at least $800k. Due to extremely high demand, very little new construction, and onerous building codes, this is probably the only kind of new, market-rate development we’ll be seeing in the urban areas of RI.
