Working with the Rhode Island Convention Center Authority and the operator of both the convention center and indoor arena in Providence, SFA was engaged to evaluate multiple sites and multiple business models that could contribute to tourism-driving events in and around Providence. SFA provided insights and data related to two sites that would be suited to two different facility types, each of which was recommended based on use of land, potential development incentives, surrounding infrastructure, local demand, existing service providers, expected financial performance, and expected economic impact.
