I am skeptical anyway. The thing has leaves on top that look an awful lot like pineapple leaves to me.

Is that a pineapple or a pine cone?

Many people are puzzelled by the figure under the main entrance underpass at "Providence's Little Italy". In fact, hanging from the underpass is "La Pigna", an Italian symbol for hospitality and for sharing of abundance.
