- History
The iconic Apex pyramid can be easily seen from the highway. Thousands of people drive by it every day, but most Rhode Islanders have no idea that the building isn’t abandoned--Apex is still operating it’s last remaining department store out of the building today! If you haven’t seen it, click through to the episode notes and check out "The Ugliest Buildings in Every US State", but make up your own mind on whether it’s hideous or magical.
To Visit:
100 Main St, Pawtucket, RI 02860
