  8. is it farfetched to estimate all of these red proposals to be completed by 2010
  9. if the market still supported it... they definately would
  10. well why doesnt the Hilton keep its height and just make it hotel rooms?? and if all of the penthouses in our big 3 condo projects sell out, they can add a few more floors to the hilton to add penthouses. I doubt that the city is over saturated with hotels yet..

  12. garris you seem to travel the most on this forum... do u have a favorite city? and what do these business trips makes you think of prOVIDENCE... and changes in opinion?

  14. Dave and Busters is a huge hit in Providence... especially b/c it's the only one in New England
  15. does that mean when other cities are featured in movies and t.v. shows for a skyline shot, that they are specially lit like ours are??
  16. part of the Cranston Stadium. Behind me is the baseball field. To my left are more bleachers.. or is it bleechers? and beyond the bleechers to my left are tennis courts and a playgroud. Garris hunny.. this is the area I want to capture during sunset.. it always looks amazing but I cant find the right angle to capture the entire stadium.. the 2nd pic is just a continuation of the main bleechers below is the google overview of the stadium.. you can see the red X is where i was sitting... and the red/yellow arrow (mostly yellow) is the direction i was facing. below are a few buildings I made in the google sketch program. I would love to see them in various areas of providence... I LOVE them. enjoy and gimme feedback if you know any landmarks or area that you'd like me to shoot.. when all of the trees are in bloooom... i'll go to roger williams park Garris.. I had more photos of Rolfe st. but I accidentally made them too large to upload on image shack. A mistake Cranston made was when they attempted to renovate the Stadium theater. It was supposed to be a small sympony hall/cafe with a liquor license. Then the whole idea of a place with a liquor license across the street from the High School stirred a debate. Now it is sitting vacant and in the middle of a renovation! That area is key and if a few mixed upscale/cheap prices lunch or dinner places popped up.. they area would be much better. I remember when the Stadium Theater was still in business. It was a fun place to be It'll come back though
  17. Cranston photos... had no clue what to shoot Cranston city hall below My good ol' Cransotn High School East Rolfe Street (near the highschool above) The only high rise we have.. listed on emporis I think!
