Years ago (probably c2001) I had to do a report in highschool that required me pulling some old newspaper articles.

I think it was the RI Historical Society, on the East Side, had a collection of old projo's on microfiche. I'd recommend looking there. If not, they might be able to dig something up for you.

Thank you so much! This is so fun and interesting. You would think there would be a million pics because it was technically the first ever high rise building on the east coast (I was surprised by that too).

Not everybody carried a camera in their pocket back then...

Chiming in to say that this place is an amazing resource! It’s also a great way to spend a day.
