I saw that too.  I'm going to be honest with everyone though, I'm glad this place is getting torn down.  It's an eyesore and attracts hoodlums to the area (not UE people of course).   The water front has so much potential to be pretty why not move forward and improve it?  There is really no historic significance about shooters.  It's not an old mill from the early 1900's.  Just my opinion.

Agreed. I don't usually call properties "eyesores," but the building's bright colours and the mess of garbage and other rubble really does stand out in that neighborhood. Especially with all the work the city has done over the years to improve the waterfront.

Isn't there another vacant nightclub in that area? It seems like nightclubs go out of business daily in Providence.

Yeah Doug,
the other club is Olives, which I also believe it being torn down too.
