Anyone with an interest in Providence’s waterfront and parks was urged to attend a free workshop April 7 on the fate of the derelict building that used to house Shooters nightclub. This is the building originally called Bootleggers that had a brief heyday in the ‘80s.
The state’s Department of Transportation owns the land and the building, which is in a prime spot between what will be the new Route 195 and the India Point waterfront, with a view straight down Narragansett Bay.
A national group called Project for Public Spaces hosted the workshop.
