Ask the Manager!

Introducing a new special segment in The Residences Newsletter just for our Residents to

get their most wanted questions answered!

Q: What happens if I lose my keys or garage opener, do I have to pay a fee to be let inside?

A: The quick answer to that question is no. We do not charge a fee to our residents to be let inside of the

building, garage or an individual residence. There is a Concierge at the front entrance 24 hours a day to

insure that a resident will be assisted at any hour of the day. Each resident receives two sets of keys, ga-

rage openers and fobs when they move into The Residences Providence. If you happen to misplace a set

of keys, the keys can automatically be deactivated and you may purchase an extra set at your conven-

ience.

If you have any questions about the keys, locks or garage, please feel free to call the Concierge Desk at

any time: 401 598 8040.

America’s Top 10 Underrated Cities

Providence, RI made the list of America’s Top 10 Underrated Cities on the Yahoo Travel Guide.

Here is what the article had to say: “The "Creative Capital" of Providence, R.I., has indeed been reborn in

the last decade, as residents have reclaimed derelict buildings and two of the city's three rivers, created wa-

terside walkways, and welcomed brand-name shopping. Today, visitors can take a gondola ride through

downtown or, on select dates between June and October, enjoy the light of 100 bonfires along Providence's

three rivers as part the WaterFires events – an evening fire sculpture festival set to music. When you add in

a burgeoning dining scene, rich New England history, the new Chace Center at the Museum of Art – Rhode

Island School of Design (it displays twice as much art as before), a monthly gallery night, and a renowned

performing arts scene, this underrated city seems tailor-made for a quick and fulfilling getaway.”

Other city’s that made the list are; Portland, Baltimore, Fort Lauderdale, Houston, Kansas City, Louis-

ville, Minneapolis, Pittsburgh and Sacramento.
