Last week on my radio show, Rich, Steve and I were in the studio with the latest market update. We were joined by John Marion, Executive Director of Common Cause RI who talked about his concerns regarding the formation of a commission to oversee the land reclaimed from 195 relocation. Peter Killmartin, the state attorney general, objected to the fact that the bill grants absolute power to the commission, without any oversight by the State Properties Committee. Common Cause is sponsoring a community forum about the land legislation this evening at The Spot Underground on 15 Elbow Street in Providence. We will also hear from Nelson Taylor, an agent in our Providence Office, who will be showcasing a delightful property in Providence. 189 Hope Street, a property known by many for its wedding cake resemblance, has a certain creative flair that is unusual to Second Empire houses in Providence. The architectural detailing is exquisite, with ornate molding throughout that reminds one of frosted elegance. Built in 1877 for Horatio N Campbell, this 8000 sq ft home in the heart of Brown combines the intricate design of our forefathers with the convenience of today. For more information on the home, contact the Taylor Group. The Taylor Group is Nelson Taylor, Chris Wall and Bethany Calitri who collectively offer more than 15 years of local experience. A dynamic team of residential and commercial real estate agents, The Taylor Group values their ability to collaborate as a diverse team, offering their clients a wide range of experience, a broad base of knowledge and the keenest negotiating skills possible.
