$900 for a 1-bdrm in Providence (not between Main St. & Gano) is ...ludicrously expensive historically speaking. Part of that is RI salaries being terrible, and another is that to get a cheaper place you have to live in the shootier neighborhoods on the Westside.

And-I am not complaining about the gentrification; far better a condo in that bldg. than a new McMansion on a greenfield site. I just think the legislation is barely worth the effort.
