Reply to Public building with a really large globe? by 4k5
Not a "public" building per se, but the lobby of IGT in Providence has one... they'd probably allow you to get a photo

Reply to Soupy Saturday in Westerly by WestBoundExitSign
PSA: If you don't "know a guy" and you can't get to Westerly to go to Ritacco's Market or Westerly Packing, there are a couple places that will ship soupy. Dippers (https://www.supri.com) or Fortuna's (https://fortunasausage.com/cured-salami-meats/soupy-fortunas-signature-salami/) ... Fortuna's is formerly of Westerly and occasionally I find their product at Stop & Shop on Quaker Lane in Warwick.

if you go the opposite direction, you end up pretty close to the Dollar Tree in the Target plaza on Bald Hill Rd. too :)

Having had to look into trash haulers for a condo complex, I'm not sure any of them would change the way they do things just to not pay the fines... they'd probably gripe about it and raise prices together in solidarity. And get their union to sue the state about being treated unfairly.

I like NK Chicago Pizza in North Kingstown, but it's a bit out of the way from Providence and Cranston, and I've never tried Sicilia's to compare them.

Providence Omni has a nice pool, can walk to a bunch of places from there too (including Providence Place Mall and Amica Pavilion without having to step outside)

Yes. This is definitely a thing my grandmother did years ago when she was teaching me how to drive, and I still do.

Also there is Greyhound, Peter Pan, and FlixBus from Providence if you want to go on the cheap. (I really miss MegaBus, they were awesome)

We usually drive to New Haven (parking $$ but it's a garage) or Westport (street parking) and take Metro-North RR to Grand Central

Reply to comment by growupandblowawayy in Can anyone explain Ashley Marie Kalus's energy policy? by sriracha_Salad
I feel like MOST of the Republicans in this state are moderate fiscal conservatives who want to see the Dems stop giving taxpayer money to everything they possibly can. I would never vote Republican at the federal level because of the absurd impact they have on things that should not be their business. (Women's bodies, gay rights, etc.) But the democratic machine in this state has given away everything to everyone. People move here to take advantage of it.

Agree with this. G-Pub has an awesome burger if you liked Luxe. Wish they were still open for lunch.
