We only have SE wind @ higher velocity a small fraction of the time

so it may seem new to that area

That makes sense. There have been posts in the past of either Rhode Islanders that rarely come that area or temporary residents that complain and want to cause a ruckus.

I’ve smelled that smelly smell that smells smelly for decades. It’s not a constant thing though

I feel bad for those that live near there. it’s an industrial area for a reason. Oddly enough I never really smell it on my bike rides down Allen’s Ave during the warm weather

Yea, they should move that kind of stuff away from downtown and especially the hospital. Seems weird that it’s there.

Well the plant was there before the hospital by over 50 years

So the question is, why did they build hospitals across from an industrial port and an asphalt plant back in the 1950s

No the hospital has been there since the 1850s.

Still your point stands as I'm sure the old coal port has and was built around the same time

I commute thru that area 5 days a week for the last 5 years. The other reddits are right. I only notice the smell traveling on the 195 bridges over the asphalt and recycling center on average 3 times a month.

Do they cremate bodies there or incinerate flash left over from surgeries?

I don't think they dump human flesh left over from surgeries out of pails. I imagine they incinerate the packaging as well as the contents. Whole human bodies I don't know about but a severed leg or the fat leftover from liposuction. I very much that they want to keep that packaging.

They use autoclaves for contaminated items, I’d guess they’d have something like that for flesh and other bio trash.

What? Hospitals incinerate things all over the world.
