Staff Spotlight
David has worked for the Resi-
dences for a little over a month,
and has quickly learned the ropes of
the Residences Tower.
Born & Raised in Rhode Island,
David now lives in North Attleboro
MA with his wife and 9 month old
baby Joseph.
David enjoys eating out, especially at Italian
restaurants. David’s favorite restaurant in
Providence is Capriccio.
Before starting at The Residences, David
worked as an On Site Supervisor for a
construction company, so he has been
assisting the Director of Engineering a
lot with the maintenance of the
Tower.
In his spare time, David enjoys fresh
water fishing. He even owns his own
boat and is the VP of The Kent
County Bass Masters Association.
David really enjoys working downtown, and
can’t wait for a view of Waterfire from the
Tower. So far, his favorite part of the job is
meeting all the wonderful Residents.

Resident Testimonial
This month’s testimonial comes from a resident who made the decision to live here the first day we offered the
Residences for sale…when the ground was still a park and not a skyline staple of Providence. Her level of excite-
ment is contagious.
1. How long have you lived at The Residences? How long have you lived at The Residences? How long have you lived at The Residences? How long have you lived at The Residences? We have been living at the Residences for the past year and a
half.
2. What were some features that made you decide on The ResidencesWhat were some features that made you decide on The ResidencesWhat were some features that made you decide on The ResidencesWhat were some features that made you decide on The Residences? Features that we found attractive and
helped in our decision making process were those unique to Providence. Magnificent views, beautiful interior
amenities as well as Westin Hotel access to room service and all other services played a significant role. Be-
yond that (and an incredible bonus) is that without going outside the Providence Place Mall is about a 5 min-
ute walk. I already shopped for beautiful cards at Papyrus, Nordstrom’s for shoes, and gifts at Tiffany’s.
3. What would you like to share about yourself to prospective residents?What would you like to share about yourself to prospective residents?What would you like to share about yourself to prospective residents?What would you like to share about yourself to prospective residents? Commuting anywhere in either RI or
other states is a snap. My job takes me daily throughout New England and the 95/I-195 highways are right
outside your door. We also love to meet new people and socialize.
4. What has been your experience when using the Concierge service?What has been your experience when using the Concierge service?What has been your experience when using the Concierge service?What has been your experience when using the Concierge service? The concierge services have been noth-
ing short of world class. 24 hour attention to detail and our needs is what we have experienced. Whether
making reservations at The Westin Hotel, restaurants or handling the dry cleaning—to say we are pleased and
satisfied is an understatement.

said many times, as well as others having commented on the outstanding con-
struction as well as the architectural designs and layouts. Our 2 bedroom, den,
2.5 bath residence is perfect for guests and entertaining. High ceilings and tons
of glass lend itself to spectacular city living.
