Never been there but looked at some of the mill type apts when moving here. Soundproofing tends to be minimal. I would suggest top floor only. You’ll want to get a sense of the demographic. I looked at one in PVD and it was clear that there were like 4 med school students in each apt - basically a dorm.

Slater has a few buildings.

Building 1 is a typical restored mill, with sound problems.

Building 2 is a new construction, and damn near soundproof.

Building 3 is a legit house. Sound depends on unit.

Building 4 I don’t know about. Haven’t heard anything bad, besides from being across the street from a church bell that goes off every hour.

Which one did you look at in PVD, the Halstead by the station?

This was several years ago - US Rubber Lofts by Atwells. It was when it was first opening and lots of deals so no idea what kinda demographic now.

I also looked at the ones by Providence Place Mall and those were nice and seemed more solid, but it was like a 10 minute walk to where the parking or exit would be from the unit I was looking at. No joke - these buildings are huge! Ha
