Aidan's Pub
Bristol, Rhode Island

Renovations to Aidan's Irish Pub in Bristol will include an expanded kitchen, second floor function room with roof deck, and a large stone fireplace for the dining porch.  The pub will be the first location in Rhode Island to install an environmentally friendly rainwater collection system.  Rainwater will be collected and stored in an underground cistern.  The water will then be pumped to a header tank, ultraviolet lights will disinfect  the water, and finally the water will be distributed to the toilets.  The "green" rainwater collection system will reduce utility costs, along with reducing site runoff and potential street flooding.Project description to follow soon.
