For those who care, the latest proposal for Pawtucket. This one looking for $70-90 million in public funding and includes a minor league soccer stadium
"A developer plans to anchor a $400-million development, potentially the largest in Pawtucket’s history, around a minor-league professional soccer team and riverfront stadium, city and state leaders announced Monday.
Fortuitous Partners, led by Brown University graduate Brett Johnson, wants to put a soccer-specific stadium on the site of a former National Grid-manufactured gas plant, known as the Tidewater Site, on the west bank of the Seekonk River.
On the east bank, across a new footbridge and public park, Fortuitous envisions 200 apartments above shops. And north of Route 95, on the “Apex” property where a year ago plans for a minor-league baseball stadium collapsed, Fortuitous wants to build a 200-room hotel with “indoor sports event center” and 200,000 square feet of office space, according to city and state officials.."
