Transportation and Land UseRevitalizing Pawtucket’s DowntownBy Thomas Mann

The leaves are not the only thing changing in Pawtucket’s historic Downtown. Over the past several months, several buildings have received a facelift and a splash of color.

The owners of the McDevitt building on Broad Street began exterior renovations and are soliciting businesses to fill vacant retail and office space. Nearby, a cluster of niche antiques dealers have set up shop in their historic building on Exchange Street. A new restaurant on Summer Street is taking shape, and the Cup N Saucer on Main Street is now open.

Indeed, Downtown development is chugging along at a quiet, understated pace. Ken

Kellaway received a green light from City officials for his plan to turn his Main Street warehouse into a mixed-use complex with a function hall/club venue as an anchor for other smaller retail and office uses.

These new development patterns are fueling the desire for an enhanced transportation and pedestrian infrastructure. Momentum is building, and major projects such as the I-95/Pawtucket River Bridge and Conant Street Bridge replacement projects have already proven to have catalytic potential.

Following a successful congressional transportation meeting with state, political and business leaders, The Pawtucket

Foundation, Northern Rhode Island Chamber of Commerce and Blackstone Valley communities have ignited a regional collaboration to garner the necessary political support for coordinated and regional transportation planning.

Just last week, RIDOT Director Michael Lewis pledged his commitment to move the Pawtucket Commuter Rail project to the next phase: preliminary engineering.

The future of Downtown Pawtucket is now hanging on the successful integration of transportation and land use planning. Planning for density, walkability and a mix of uses will lead to a bright future.

On October 26, 2009, The Pawtucket Foundation and Northern Rhode Island Chamber of Commerce hosted over 100 community leaders, politicians and transit advocates at a congressional breakfast to discuss regional transportation issues affecting northern Rhode Island.  Senator Reed attended the event along with staffers from Representative Kennedy's and Senator Whitehouse's offices.  The event was made possible through a donation from Bristol County Savings Bank.

During brief remarks, Senator Reed underscored current efforts to tie economic development with transportation planning and vowed continued support for the proposed Pawtucket/Central Falls commuter rail stop as well as other regional transportation initiatives. Following a suggestion from Senator Reed, participants at the meeting unanimously resolved to support and encourage regional cooperation for commuter rail investment.

Thomas Mann, Executive Director of The Pawtucket Foundation presented a video that outlined four major points:

1. Demonstrate the regional significance of the Pawtucket/Central Falls Commuter Rail Stop project.  Pawtucket has secured $360,000 and the State of RI has appropriated $40,000 as the local match to access a $1.96M earmark for preliminary engineering and NEPA permitting.

2. Implement a more in-depth regional feasibility analysis for an intra-state commuter rail proposal to create service from Woonsocket, through the Blackstone Valley to Providence and T.F. Green Airport

3. Consider economic development as a criterion for transportation infrastructure investments.  Focus transit funding to coincide with transit oriented development.

4. Connect the Blackstone Valley Bike Path to the East Bay Bike Path.  Expedite design and funding to complete the Blackstone Valley Bike Path.

Rhode Island Department of Transportation Director Michael Lewis commented on the merit of creating a community-based forum to champion projects like the Pawtucket/Central Falls station.  "The Squeaky wheel gets the grease," he said, as he commended the group for assembling leaders from every level of government, key businesses and non-profits to advocate very specific regional objectives.

Following the event, in a follow up letter to Pawtucket’s Mayor James E. Doyle dated November 11, 2009, Director Lewis commented, “The local and regional support expressed at the October 26, 2009 transportation Breakfast was overwhelming.” He went on to describe how he had directed his Intermodal Planning Office to begin preparing a project agreement with the City for project management oversight of

the next phase which includes preliminary engineering for a Pawtucket stop. He added that RIDOT looks forward to “working closely together on this project and future passenger rail projects in the Blackstone Valley region.”

While the breakfast meeting benchmarked a significant milestone achievement for the Pawtucket commuter rail stop, other Blackstone Valley municipalities pounced on the opportunity. In fact, Woonsocket’s City Council passed a resolution supporting an amendment to the State’s Transportation Improvement Program that would provide funding for a final detailed study leading towards the implementation of commuter rail throughout the Blackstone Valley.

Mayor Doyle quickly recognized the strong regional support and has since requested that all of the communities in the Blackstone Valley pass resolutions supporting regional transit-oriented investment.

This all comes at a time when the newly-formed Coalition for Transportation Choice has begun a statewide movement to advocate investments in a 21st century transportation system to connect the entire state with multi-modal transportation choices.

Kellaway Center develops big plansCity approves proposalBy Thomas Mann

Two summers ago, building owner Ken Kellaway, a member of The Pawtucket Foundation, asked the Foundation to provide some recommendations on some development ideas for his downtown property that flanks Main Street and Commerce Street.

After surveying the building and examining its potential, I made a series of recommendations of uses and strategies I thought might be appropriate. I recommended Kellaway contact Ron Wierks, a local developer who was looking for a project. Months later, Kellaway and Wierks began what is now the Kellaway Center.

This summer, The Kellaway Center completed its first phase of development when it opened 6,400 square feet of office space targeting small and medium sized businesses who need low-cost, flexible office space. The offices include a shared conference space and kitchen.

Next, Kellaway had to overcome an obstacle: zoning. Kellaway Realty Corporation requested a use variance for a second phase events center which was not permitted outright in the Commercial General Zone and mill building re-use overlay district.

In October, the Zoning Board of Review voted unanimously to allow an events center to accommodate concert events, a nightclub and a restaurant. City

Counselor Jim Chadwick played a key role in garnering support from neighboring land owners.

The approval paved the way for a mixed-use development plan that also envisions an old-style restaurant, boutiques, art studios, fitness center and office space. Phase one is 60 percent occupied. At full build-out, the project will have regional economic impact with job creation, tax revenues and spillover into the surrounding neighborhood.

Over 130,000 square feet of former industrial space are under transformation at a perfect time when three adjacent mills - Bayley Lofts, Union Wadding

Lofts and Slater Cotton Mill - were recently converted into market-rate condominiums and apartments. The Kellaway Center is less than a quarter mile from the proposed commuter rail station which could begin preliminary engineering early next year when federal funding becomes available.

Leasing opportunities are extremely flexible, and spaces can be configured to small units for as little as $180 monthly.

To inquire about leasing opportunities at the Kellaway Center, call Project Manager Ron Wierks at 724-6970, kellawaycenter@gmail.com or visit www.kellawaycenter.com .

Opened just a year and three quarters ago, Places & Spaces is operated by two Pawtucket residents, Agueda Del Borgo and Linda Thimann Dewing, both strongly committed to the resurgence and vitality of Pawtucket.

The Main Street real estate firm is currently listing over 63,000 square feet of available downtown real estate which includes at least 15 residential lofts, office/professional, retail, mixed-use, studio, live/work as well as former church turned warehouse. Places & Spaces is actively working with the owners of the former Elks Club building to fill its storefronts.

The Elks Club, on Exchange Street, now owned by international antiques dealers Paul Burke and Mark Weaver of Guinevere Antiques in London, England is going through a transformation and is housing a number of quality antiques businesses that expect to be open in the very near future. Nearly all of the storefront spaces are rented to a cluster of antiques dealers who offers exclusive relics, art, furnishings and other art-deco period pieces.

According to Burke, he has traditionally served most of his clients searching for antiques by appointment only, but his new location on Exchange Street offers an opportunity to capture more pedestrian foot-traffic with ideally situated storefronts showcasing his many fine antiques and art.

The owners of the historic building are working to create an enclave of antiques-related businesses with the hopes of putting Pawtucket on the map for fine antiques. Pawtucket’s location on I-95 with close proximity to Boston, Providence and New York offers an attractive location to build a niche market.

With the nearby Rhode Island Antiques Mall, there is an opportunity to cultivate a real “antiques district”. This is a concept that the City’s planning department and local historian/antiques dealer Richard Kazarian had explored early on.

New antiques entrprenuers move in to historic Elks Club building and foster big plans to create a niche antiques market in Downtown Pawtucket. Owners hope to attract other like-minded businesses in an effort to build an antiques district.

Formerly one of the busiest clothing stores in Pawtucket, the former W. H. McDevitt building is making a comeback long after the company closed its doors in the 1960’s. The 27,000 square feet landmark is a fine example of a “flat-iron” building, so named because of the triangular southern end, where North Union and Broad Streets come together. A 1920s post card from Patty Zach’s collection at The Camera Werks pictured below shows striped awnings projected around the curved end, where cast iron columns create an elegant facade. The tall, decorative tower was unfortunately removed in the 1920’s.

Julian, Eduardo and Christine Farietta, who purchased the building in 2005 with partner Edgar Sanchez, experienced severe setbacks when a faulty heating system and roof leaks caused the building to close for repairs. But the determined team has been working hard for months and has made a huge investment of both time and money to upgrade the property. Soon, replacement window glass will be installed, and the retail storefronts will be coming back to life. In recent months, the following work has been completed or is in progress:

A comprehensive fire code assessment needs has been reviewed with City officials, architect Frank Murphy and the State Fire Marshall

Entire building wired for Cox service so every office and retail space will be fully connected to the internet

New rubber roof installed this summer

Boiler and chimney system fully repaired during last winter

Exterior storefronts extensively cleaned and retrofitted with new windows and painted, stucco finish

Dropped ceilings removed to reveal historic tin patterns

Interior partition walls removed as per original floor plate

Second stair case and fire wall constructed with entrance to North Union Street

There are many possibilities for the storefront spaces, such as a café or sandwich shop, a flower shop, a wine store, various kinds of office spaces, clothing, bookstore or other personal services. Any use is subject to approval by obtaining a certificate of zoning compliance from the City Zoning Office. Storefronts range from roughly 700 to 4,000 in square feet. One very large space at the north end has a beautifully exposed brick wall. Each storefront has its own restroom, two means of egress and is fully sprinklered. Upstairs houses a large variety of office and professional spaces, ranging from just a few hundred square feet to one or two that are over 2,600 square

feet. Some spaces are finished and others can be built-to-suit. One or two are relatively raw spaces that would make fabulous studios, two with north and east light. Eventually all will receive new insulated windows. With the growing focus on antiques around the corner, a new neighboring restaurant and new businesses at the north end of downtown Main Street, this little corner of historic downtown is vividly emerging. Entrepreneurial and innovative people will make great tenants at this historic landmark. Early occupancy is rewarded with attractive, flexible lease arrangements. All inquiries regarding renting a space should be directed to Places & Spaces Realty, LLC at 231 Main Street, or www.placesandspacesrealtyri.com.

Many remember the old Cup ‘N Saucer on located on Main Street in historic Downtown Pawtucket. A newer version of the old diner just opened under new management.

Restauranteur Robert Plouffe just reopened the eatery after months of hard work reinventing an interior with a raceing-inspired decorative motif custom designed by Richmond E.E. Watrous, II, a local sculptor and designer.

The new interior masterfully integrates a modern aesthetic with the charming remnants of the old laminate counter and comfortable booths. A jukebox occupies one corner, and patrons can sit at a long counter, a small table or a booth along the wall. The restaurant plans to offer outdoor seating in the warmer months. Plouffe says he designed the interior and overhead lighting with the intent of rearranging the tables in the summer to enable him to move some of the tables onto the

sidewalk for outdoor dining. Nearby Village Restaurant and Kafe Lila also offered outdoor seating this past summer.

Plouffe is no stranger to the food business, he has owned successful restaurants and a catering business. He recently renovated a truck and offers his cuisine at regional festivals and street fairs. He hopes to participate with such events in Pawtucket, and he expressed his desire to see Main Street closed to traffic periodically to encourage street fairs like Rocktucket during the Pawtucket Arts Festival.

The Cup ‘N Saucer is a welcomed addition to a steadily growing commercial Downtown core. New service-oriented businesses are reclaiming empty storefronts and local businesses are taking notice. Even in a distressed economy, Pawtucket is showing that it is has something special to offer: walkability, historic charm and creative entrepreneurs willing to take risk.

There’s a skirmish of whit between them, William Shakespeare declared of the sassy Much Ado About Nothing couple, Beatrice and Benedict. The quip just as easily could be used to describe guests at Date Night with The Pawtucket Foundation. The friend-raiser brought together 50 guests for a romantic and event-filled evening in Downtown Pawtucket.

The event began with a festive reception in the studio of world-renowned designer and Foundation board member Morris Nathanson and his wife Phyllis. Surrounded by a lifetime of Nathanson’s work, guests found the space a perfect setting for cocktails and delicious treats from Fine Catering by Russell Morin. In addition, guests were treated to an up-close and personal preview of the Gamm performance-to-come, as artistic director and star (Benedict) of Much Ado About Nothing, Tony Estrella, joined guests for the reception, just an hour before appearing on stage.

Throughout the reception, the mood was perfectly set by students from the Jacqueline M. Walsh School for the Arts jazz ensemble. The group of six students performed a silky smooth set, featuring both vocal and instrumental solos from the talented bunch. As the evening progressed, guests were invited to Studio Goddard Partridge, where award winning artists Lisa Goddard and Regina Partridge shared their gallery and print making workshop. The tour and demonstration was a behind-the-scenes treat.

As the clock approached eight o’clock, guests conveniently crossed the street to the Sandra Feinstein Gamm Theatre to enjoy what had been billed as a critically acclaimed

performance of Much Ado About Nothing. The post-World War II setting for the play provided a fresh feel and fantastic wardrobe. The play was up-beat, witty and animated with a handful of well-tuned musical performances. Living up to the hype, the cast dazzled the audience who responded with a standing ovation.

The Pawtucket Foundation extends a sincere thank you to all those who participated in Date Night and helped to make the evening a special night to remember.

Urban Land Institute presents metro area transportation programRIDOT Director Lewis advocates commuter rail projects in RI

At a recent transportation program in Providence organized by the Urban Land Institute, a panel of transportation experts including RIDOT Director Michael Lewis, RIPTA executive Mark Therrien, developer Buff Chace and executive director Scott Wolf from Grow Smart RI, advocated the need for a 21st century transportation system in Rhode Island.

Among several topics including transit-oriented development and the findings in RIPTA’s metro area study, Lewis articulated the need to balance highway improvements with investment in mass transit. He articulated his continued support of the Pawtucket/Central Falls stop and spoke of the regional collaboration displayed at the Oct 26 event.

Over 60 private sector professionals affiliated with land use and real estate development attended the presentation. This program is evidence of a regional coalition of transportation-minded professionals who believe investment in transit infrastructure is the key to unlocking Rhode Island’s economic potential.

Pawtucket Arts Collaborative10x10x10 show big hitBy Thomas Mann

Earlier this month, The Pawtucket Arts Collaborative presented its annual 10x10x10 show, and over 100 people attended the opening reception and gallery talk.

More than 50 artists are currently exhibiting in the show which is open to the public at the Pawtucket Arts Collaborative gallery at the Blackstone Valley Visitor Center located at 175 Main Street in historic Downtown Pawtucket.

The Pawtucket Arts Collaborative has built a reputation for exhibiting high-quality art in its downtown gallery. It presents member exhibits, juried shows and in January will feature the work of local architect and designer Morris Nathanson.

The 10 show is one of the most popular shows because everything in the show is on sale for only $150. This is a great sale that traditionally kicks off the start of the holiday season, so many patrons attend the show looking for unique gifts.

Even in a depressed economy, when the show opened this month, the group sold twice as many pieces than they did in the previous year. This is a testament to the growing appreciation of art lovers who are increasing discovering the many art talent Rhode Island’s original “creative community” offers.

The 10 Show was reviewed by the Times by local arts writer Susan Keller. In her review of the show, she noted the “distinctiveness” of the art and commended the Pawtucket Arts Collaborative for a “wonderful job of showing solidarity in support for the arts, while celebrating the wide array of art, and artists, that is born in such a small geographical area.”

Following the 10 show opening reception, Rhode Island School of Design architecture professor Silvia Acosta presented a talk and slide show of several studio projects her students had accomplished in several countries

including Mexico, Japan and Australia. Her presentation showed an inspiring array of innovative projects that utilized naturally available materials and hand-crafted techniques to solve architectural and spacial problems.

In her lecture, Acosta showed incredible images of the buildings, structures and spaces her creative RISD students fashioned in 6-week studios offered in other countries.

Pawtucket truly is a center for the arts, and kudos to the Pawtucket Arts Collaborative for showcasing the many intellectual and creative talents living and working in the City.

Central Falls and Pawtucket residents might want to start training now. Representatives from The Pawtucket Foundation and Blackstone Valley Tourism Council are drawing up plans for a Cherry Tree Festival and 5 Kilometer (3.1 mile) Run/Walk to be held on May 1, 2010.

The amateur run/walk will weave a scenic route through the heart of each community with the start and finish line along side the newly planted rancho cherry trees on Roosevelt Avenue. Organizers chose the May 1st date to coincide with the expected blooming of the new cherry trees planted last spring as part of project to revitalize the mill and riverfront corridor.

Following the race, a festival will feature a traditional Rhode Island May breakfast along the banks of the Blackstone River. Later in the morning, all attendees will be encouraged to participate in a Cherry Tree Stroll parading down Roosevelt Avenue. The stroll will offer a leisurely opportunity for individuals of all ages to enjoy the blossoming trees.

The planning group is hoping to start an annual festival and 5K tradition to help raise funds to maintain and plant new cherry trees in the project area.

The 65 cherry trees were installed last year thanks to a public/private partnership and seed financing provided by local businesses. Louis Yip, the developer of M-Residential, a new mill

redevelopment project was a prime mover behind the project with a $15,000 investment. Collette Vacations and other businesses along Roosevelt Avenue including Storage America, Anthony Gudas, and the Chinese American Church also contributed.

Last week, city officials from both Central Falls and Pawtucket, the Blackstone Valley Tourism Council, The Pawtucket Foundation and local businesses met to identify a strategy to continue planting additional cherry trees next Spring.

65 cherry trees were installed last year thanks to a public/private partnership and seed financing provided by local businesses. Representatives from the Blackstone Valley Tourism Council and The Pawtucket Foundation hope to inspire annual Cherry Tree Festival and 5k Race.

Pawtucket and Central Falls residents who are looking for fresh culinary flavors will be pleased with the opening of Dakar Restaurant. The Senegalese restaurant opened in August at 502 Roosevelt Avenue near the Pawtucket/Central Falls border.

Owner/operator Djiby Ndoye, a native of Senegal, and his wife Colleen Daley Ndoye, entered the restaurant business for the first time and hope to attract a broad spectrum of diners. As Woodlawn Neighborhood residents with strong ties to the community, the couple is sure to succeed.

The clean, bright decor welcomes guests into a dining room complete with photos and traditional art from the capital of Senegal in West Africa. The menu caters to business crowds for lunch as well as families for dinner with a mix of well-portioned meals. Throughout the menu, naem (Senegalese style eggrolls), chebujenn (a hearty plate of fish with vegetables

and mild spices) and bissop (a refreshing and sweet hibiscus drink) are highlighted as Ndoye family favorites, a nice personal touch.

The flavors are distinct with mild spices, but not overbearing. Meals feature hearty ingredients like fish, beef, chicken and lamb as well as potatoes, carrots, wraps and skewers. Each dish offers a pleasant new twist for those not accustomed to the delightful tastes of authentic Senegalese cuisine.

If you are still unsure about a dish, just ask the owner. Djiby is happy to make recommendations and help find something to satisfy your taste buds. His attentive, helpful service always makes for a pleasant dining experience.
