“Police said the victim suffered minor finger lacerations and was treated when first responders arrived on-scene.”

That spot is a four-point intersection where Upper South Providence, Elmwood and the West End technically meet. It's not exactly in the West End.

A man was stabbed at the Shell gas station on Elmwood Ave at Bridgham Street.
This is the West End.

I might add that even though at the time you were sure that you were right, you were willing to use a video that you must have known was not true.

After you made the assumption that the people you saw were protesting you then made the next assumption that they must be nazis. The only argument I made is that people online should stop referring to any people that they disagree with as nazis. You replied to me with this bullshit link proving once and for all that they were actual nazis. Later you recanted because you were wrong. Do you have any idea how much hatred I got for suggesting that you might be wrong? My question is at the time that you were sure that you were right, were did you get the either fake or outdated or out of context video? And I'm not dumb enough to expect any apologies for you or the rest of the people that dog piled me.

Right I actually said the same thing about that 6/10 plan, how is it reconnecting anything when the rail line is still there. There's a reason that on the wrong side of the tracks is a saying that was from well before highways came about.

I haven't been there in years. What's the situation? How much is the tasting menu if they have one?

I agree about the Promenade/Kinsley areas. But none of that has been reconfigured in the last 50 years, so I took your comment to refer to the 1990s era river-relocation project that created Waterplace Park etc.
As far as burying the 6/10 connector, that recent proposal was a pleasant fantasy. It failed for the same reasons that sunken highways across the nation remain uncovered: expense.
Unfortunately, decking over highways or rail lines in the United States is wildly expensive- mostly due not to actual technical costs, but to the cascade of bureaucratic regulatory costs, which have killed almost every project of this type since the big dig in Boston.
Fun fact: The 6/10 connector is now widely blamed for severing the connecting urban fabric between Federal Hill and Olneyville. In fact, that connection was severed decades before, by rail lines.
The highway paralleled those rail lines, and surely reinforced the separation. But it isn’t accurate to say that the 6/10 connector was what cut these neighborhoods apart. That had already been done by the railroad right of way, decades before.
Edit: typo
