Massive Residential Project Announced for Parcel 42

On Monday, Nov. 14, with a large, excited crowd on hand at the 195 Commission meeting, New York developers, The Fane Organization, unveiled an epic concept for Hope Point Towers. The project will erect three towers atop a massive retail and parking garage base in the one-acre 195 Parcel 42 along Dyer Street.

To say that the grandeur of the concept boggles the mind is massively understating things. Three towers, to be built in phases, of 33, 44 and 55 stories will each dramatically o'ertop everything in the District, the Superman Building and nearly everything else Downcity.

Rather than comment on scant information (we missed the meeting), we refer you to Kate Bramson who was there and gave us the full story, with pictures, in two articles in the Providence Journal.

The concept presentation story, HERE.

And an introduction to the "well-connected" developers, HERE.

Stay tuned for what may, or may not, remake the historic skyline of the DIstrict and our city.
