"I would describe myself as eclectic:
Bohemian in thought and conservative in action -
or maybe it's the other way around."
~ Ekta Kapoor ~
"Well, isn't Bohemia a place where everyone is as good as everyone else - and must not a waiter be a little less than a waiter to be a good Bohemian?"
~ Djuna Barnes ~
I love this place, probably mostly for the atmosphere.
And I love how the "waiters" rest behind the scenes.
The Maître D' told us he already has 300 reservations for Valentine's Day! We were glad we went today!

It’s just after 12:30pm on Tuesday, June 27th as P&W 2006, one of two GP38-2s bracketing today’s PR-3 wobbles east down the degrading Providence Journal spur to retrieve a trio of empty paper boxcars. Upon easing further into greenery and pulling out the set of high-cube boxcars, 2006 will shove northwest back to Atwells interlocking on Amtrak’s Northeast Corridor, where they will join the remaining consist and P&W 2008.
In the College Hill neighborhood of Providence Rhode Island,
sits this beautiful building, also know as The Fleur-de-Lys Studios. Built in 1885, it was designed by Sydney Burleigh and Edmund R. Willson, and declared a National Historic Landmark in 1992. Today it houses artists' studios.
In New England we were very fogged out for the May 2022 lunar eclipse. We had an event planned for Frosty Drew Observatory and Science Center, but being so close to the water along the coast, we had been socked in for over a week. Myself and another Frosty Drew astronomer set up our equipment at separate locations. One in central CT, and myself in Providence, RI. Using both locations we were able to live stream most of the eclipse event.
This is a sequence image showing all primary stages of the eclipse. The progression of the image moves right to left, just like the Moon does for Northern Hemisphere sky watchers. Many of these images were in terrible shape from heavy amounts of fog, especially the maximum eclipse image. But it was recoverable. When observing the sequence, note that you can see the curve of Earth's umbra. This is why I orientated the images in a downward pointing arc.
In 1928 the Loew's State Theatre opened on Weybosset Street in downtown Providence as an opulently elegant movie house. Over the years its offerings, and its name, changed with the times, going from movies, to concerts of classical music and for a long time a well-known rock-n-roll venue. Saved from the wrecking ball around 1978 and extensively renovated since, the Providence Performing Arts Center today hosts large Broadway productions as well as orchestra performances in its once again majestically opulent surroundings. The theater's Richmond Street entrance still announces the interior grandeur inside. Providence, Rhode Island, USA.
En 1928, el Teatro Loew's State abrió sus puertas sobre la Calle Weybosset, en el centro de Providence, como una sala de cine elegante y opulenta. A lo largo de los años, sus ofertas y su nombre cambiaron con los tiempos, pasando de películas a conciertos de música clásica y durante mucho tiempo un conocido lugar de rock-n-roll. Salvado de la bola de demolición alrededor de 1978 y ampliamente renovado desde entonces, el Centro de Artes Escénicas de Providence alberga hoy grandes producciones de Broadway, así como conciertos de orquesta en su entorno otra vez más majestuoso y opulento. La entrada del teatro sobre la Calle Richmond sigue anunciando su grandeza interior. Providencia, Rhode Island, Estados Unidos.
