"Secret Mall Apartment" is a documentary on Netflix that includes a lot of the videos that Townsend took during the whole project. (There's a few stills in the article.)
It's quite interesting to watch, because Townsend himself is quite the character. There's a scene where he's having an argument with his (now ex) wife that shows that Townsend has extremely different priorities than the typical person. (And why his first marriage failed, too.)

Also, the old picture shown on the page wasn't the State Prison on Smith Hill (where the mall is now); it's the Adult Correctional Institution in Cranston-the octagonal stone building from 1878 is still used as a maximum-security prison.

We need more mixed use development like this
These days you'd be caught by the surveillance network on the first day.
But there wouldn’t be a new mall, either.
