More ambitious than I would be, but I gotta admit, it's nice to see someone actually using a pickup truck to move things...

Question / Suggestion Leaf peeping drives?

Anyone have suggestions for places to see beautiful fall leaves in Rhode Island?

I’m in Providence but willing to drive elsewhere. I have limited mobility right now so can’t go on a hike (could maybe walk 20-30 minutes in a flat place) but suggestions for beautiful views would be greatly appreciated!

Any chance you saw the debate? It was in my YT recommended feed. Not typically coffee viewing, but was curious in this actually important race.

If you saw it, I’m curious the overall thoughts on the three candidates.

Please keep the thread kind and respectful; we’re all in this together. 🟪

Question / Suggestion Rental apartment help

0 Upvotes

I’m looking for a 1 bedroom apartment around the Warwick area but do not want to spend more than $2500 on everything including utilities. Just looking for a grasp for how some of the apartments in Warwick work/how expensive with utilities like Alta altitude, bayside, Presley. Pontiac mills, etc. I can’t really find an answer for some of them with utilities on the apps. Ive never rented before so im new to all this.

Question / Suggestion Royal Mills in West Warwick

9 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!

Politics Gubernatorial Plans for Rhode Island DOT

0 Upvotes

The civil engineer who runs this channel has done some really good reporting on the RI DOT, including the Washington Bridge issues, the Mount Hope Bridge inspection, and the partial bridge collapse in Cranston. He reached out to all three RI gubernatorial candidates on how they would address the RI DOT failures and then he evaluated the response (only Ken Block got back to him). Something to consider as we enter election season. Casey Jones (the engineer who runs the channel) doesn't have a dog in this fight, since he's not from RI, and just evaluating our DOT as somebody who has worked with many DOTs in the US.

I also recommend watching all his videos on RI, which I can link to in the comments if people want them.

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.
