Was sad to see it go 😔

I miss Phred's so much.

Up voted this. One word is all it took for you to finally make some sense. Bye. Stick to what you know. Putting a silk hat on a pig and calling it gentrification. ✌🏻👋🏻

Right.

And for someone that doesn't even live here, you have one hell of an opinion 🙄 you're not even a relevant person regarding this.

Focus on your rat problem in PVD and the trap houses. 😂

I literally responded to a question you posted on a public forum asking if the location itself is the issue, and explained that it was and that’s why Cranston rejected it. I didn’t realize you weren’t actually looking for responses and just wanted to shitpost. My bad.

It doesn't affect you, so wtf are YOU going on about?

What the fuck are you even going on about?

So mind your damn business then and focus on your rat problem.

I never lived nearby, and I currently live in Providence. I legit just answered your question and you’re apparently pissed because you love Costco and want it built. The people in Cranston didn’t.

There is literally an article posted here about this very thing, so I’m not sure why you feel like this is something we need to debate.

Hmm… who do I think has put more thought and research into this..? The company making a multimillion dollar investment or a random on Reddit?

I have a BJs and a Costco membership, even though I hit Costco like 3-4x / year. If Costco was there, I imagine cranston would again have only one warehouse store after a couple years, and everyone there would be better off for it.

Yeah, because the singular loser driving home from Applebee's on too many Dollaritas on a Tuesday night is more of a public threat?

Will the Cranston police be posted up in the Chelo's parking lot or the Whole Foods parking lot? You know damn well the answer to that.

We get it. You live off Garden City Drive and don't want too many SNAP recipients passing through.

I’m not debating which is better, I’m pointing out there’s no actual need for another warehouse store within a 10 minute radius.

I posted about the land for topgolf and the latest update in that thread.

Mayor said he signed the papers, if anything big will be announced by property owners, Carpionato.

That’s what I remember reading or hearing on on TV. Sorry I don’t remember which.

Those already exist in Garden City though.

I know! But this is 2 years ago, and there's still chatter about it .

I think you missed the drunk white men getting behind the wheel after a few too many Miller Lites part? 🤔 TF? 😂

Yeah BJs is the Twin Oaks of warehouse stores.

I mean, there’s literally a BJ’s like 10 minutes away though. Cranston doesn’t need a Costco.

I think you missed the increased traffic and decreased quality of life part.

Bro.. Twin Oaks is such an overrated shit hole. 😂

But wtf else could they put there!? We have Garden City, Chapel View, all of Reservoir Ave... I want COSTCO God dammit! Lol

Nothing more Cranston than saying “hey build something here, but not some place too many people would want to go”. They’re saving the spot for the Twin Oaks of retail I guess.

ETA someone mentioned BJs is 10 mins away so sounds like they’ve got it covered.
