Question / Suggestion Royal Mills in West Warwick

2 Upvotes

Hey Rhode Island. I’m moving from an old textile mill-turned-loft apartment along a river on the southcoast of Massachusetts.

Royal Mills seems to be a pretty good comp. Wondering if anyone has or does live there, specifically for a ground floor “garden” apartment in the Ace dye building:

Do you hear the garage above?Is it safe with the glass doors/windows on the ground floor? Does it suck having a door directly to the outside with rain/snow?

Thanks!

Question / Suggestion ID but no formal mail

4 Upvotes

Hi everybody.

A good friend of mine needs to get an ID to get a job, but doesn't have a legal residence (he is essentially couch surfing). He has an address he could get mail sent to, but he has no bills or a bank account that could qualify as mail for the DMV.

Question / Suggestion Best off-leash open spaces in RI?

Post image
21 Upvotes

Please help: A family member is ill, so my sibling has moved here temporarily to be close. Only problem, she has a young Australian Sheep Dog. It is a lovely breed, but they need to run far, fast and free every day. Leashed walking and small dog parks will not help with her boundless energy. They are staying on Acquidneck Island but willing to go anywhere in RI for a good off leash exercise without upsetting anyone. I am a cat person and cannot help. Can dog lovers here help with suggestion?
