Foe dubs proposed Providence high-rises ‘towers of evil’
PROVIDENCE, R.I. — A New York City developer who said he wants to transform the skyline of Rhode Island’s capital city is meeting skepticism from some Providence leaders, including one who has jokingly coined the project the “three towers of evil.”
The Fane Organization President Jason Fane said his proposed trio of luxury residential skyscrapers — the tallest at 55 stories — could be a new symbol for the city’s ambitions to become a hub for high-tech innovation.
