Iglesia Bautista del Calvario (Providence)

La Iglesia Bautista del Calvario es una iglesia histórica en la ciudad Providence, la capital del estado de Rhode Island (Estados Unidos). Descripción En 1854, la Primera Iglesia Bautista de South Providence y la Quinta Iglesia Bautista se fusionaron para formar la Iglesia Bautista Amistad. La congregación construyó el edificio actual en dos fases. En el primero, una pequeña capilla (ahora frente a Stanwood Street) fue diseñada por Sidney Rose Badgley y construida en 1897. El rápido crecimiento de la congregación significó que este espacio era inadecuado poco después de que se completó, y el santuario principal más grande, una estructura de techo octogonal de estilo neogótico extraída de los planos de Badgley y Arthur Easton Hill, se construyó en 1905-1907.​ Después de mudarse a la nueva ubicación, la iglesia pasó a llamarse Iglesia Bautista Calvary. La casa de reuniones de la iglesia se agregó al Registro Nacional de Lugares Históricos en 1980.​ La congregación está actualmente afiliada a la denominación Iglesias Bautistas Americanas USA.

Coggeshall Farm Museum

Coggeshall Farm Museum is a non-profit farm museum in Colt State Park in Bristol, Rhode Island, U.S.A. The eighteenth century coastal tenant farm is located on 48 acres of land in Bristol and features interpreters and authentic reenactments of farm life in the year 1799. In the early nineteenth-century Wilbur and Eliza Coggeshall were tenant farmers at the farm. The Coggeshalls' son, Chandler Coggeshall, later became a politician and helped to found what is now the University of Rhode Island in 1888. The farm later became part of the Colt Estate. In 1965 the State of Rhode Island purchased the Colt Estate for use as a state park, and the Bristol Historical Society petitioned the state for permission to preserve the farm house on the property as a museum. In 1968 the Bristol Historical Society signed a lease and constructed various outbuildings. Coggeshall Farm Museum was established in 1973 to educate modern Americans about eighteenth century New England farm life. References External links Official website
Hay and Owen Buildings

The Hay and Owen Buildings are a pair of historic commercial buildings in Providence, Rhode Island, United States. The Owen Building (101 Dyer Street) was built in 1866 as two buildings, with a narrow alley running between them. They were designed by Alfred Stone for George and Smith Owen (G. & S. Owen), whose sons operated a wholesale yarn business on the premises. In 1877 Stone, as Stone & Carpenter, returned to remodel the buildings. The southern part, a four-story, nine-bay building, remained as it was built in 1866. In contrast, the northern part was radically changed. It was extended to meet the southern part, and a new fifth floor was added. A great deal of new ornamentation was also added at this time. Thus, the plural Owen Buildings became the Owen Building. The two parts originally met in the same way on both the east and west elevations. The original design remains on the west, but the east side was filled in with a flat brick wall sometime between 1918 and 1937. The Hay Building (117-135 Dyer Street) is a four-story structure, built in 1867 for Alexander Duncan, as a speculative business venture. It was designed by James C. Bucklin. The Hay Building was formerly the Hay Buildings, as a matching structure once stood on the parking lot behind the building. Despite its mansard roof, the otherwise plain design of the building recalls Bucklin's earlier Greek Revival designs. The two buildings are survivors of the era when the Weybosset Hill area was a center of Providence's commercial port. The buildings were listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.

Hay and Owen Buildings

Los Hay and Owen Buildings son un par de edificios comerciales históricos en la ciudad Providence, la capital del estado de Rhode Island (Estados Unidos). Descripción El Owen Building (101 Dyer Street) se construyó en 1866 como dos edificios, con un callejón estrecho entre ellos. Fueron diseñados por Alfred Stone para George y Smith Owen (G. & S. Owen), cuyos hijos operaban un negocio mayorista de hilados en las instalaciones.​ En 1877 Stone, como Stone & Carpenter, volvió a remodelar los edificios.​ La parte sur, un edificio de cuatro pisos y nueve bahías, se mantuvo tal como se construyó en 1866. En cambio, la parte norte fue radicalmente cambiada. Se amplió para conocer la parte sur y se añadió un nuevo quinto piso. También se agregó una gran cantidad de ornamentación nueva en este momento. Así, los Edificios Owen plurales se convirtieron en el Owen Building. Las dos partes se unieron originalmente de la misma manera en las elevaciones este y oeste. El diseño original permanece en el oeste, pero el lado este se rellenó con una pared plana de ladrillos en algún momento entre 1918 y 1937.​​ The Hay Building (117-135 Dyer Street) es una estructura de cuatro pisos, construida en 1867 para Alexander Duncan, como una empresa comercial especulativa. Fue diseñado por James C. Bucklin. El Hay Building era anteriormente Hay Buildings, ya que una vez hubo una estructura a juego en el estacionamiento detrás del edificio. A pesar de su techo abuhardillado, el diseño sencillo del edificio recuerda los diseños anteriores de estilo neogriego de Bucklin. Los dos edificios son sobrevivientes de la época en que el área de Weybosset Hill era un centro del puerto comercial de Providence.​ Los edificios se incluyeron en el Registro Nacional de Lugares Históricos en 1982.​ Galería Véase también Anexo:Registro Nacional de Lugares Históricos en Providence Referencias
Interlaken Mill Bridge

The Interlaken Mill Bridge is an historic bridge spanning the Pawtuxet River at the site of the former Arkwright and Interlaken mill complexes in Coventry, Rhode Island. The lenticular pony truss bridge was built in 1885 by the Interlaken Corporation to provide a direct connection between the mill sites, having recently (1883) acquired the Arkwright property. The trusses were manufactured by the Berlin Iron Bridge Co. of Berlin, Connecticut. The bridge is a single span measuring 92 feet (28 m) in length and just under 19 feet (5.8 m) in width, resting on stone abutments. The bridge was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978. It is the only known lenticular pony truss bridge in Rhode Island. As of 2015, the bridge is completely closed off to the public and no longer maintained. It has fallen into severe disrepair and is structurally unsound and unsafe to cross. With the closing and abandonment of the facilities on the south side of the river, and the eventual reclamation of nature to the location, the south side of the bridge leads only to thick woods and brush.

Newport Hospital

Newport Hospital is a private, nonprofit hospital located in Newport, Rhode Island. Together with The Miriam Hospital and Rhode Island Hospital, Newport Hospital is a member of the Brown University Health system. History Newport Hospital was founded in 1873 to provide better medical access to residents of Aquidneck Island, including the many mariners who previously travelled to Providence for treatment, an especially hazardous journey in the winter. Henry Ledyard served as the first president and co-founder of the hospital. Initially, the hospital was supported solely with private donations including the land upon which the first hospital, a small cottage, was built. Longtime Newport resident, George Peabody Wetmore, played a large role in building a new hospital building in the late nineteenth century. In 1903 Alice Vanderbilt, a Newport summer resident, donated a facility to the hospital in honor of her husband Cornelius Vanderbilt II, which is currently called the Vanderbilt Rehabilitation Center. Upon her death in 1978, Gertrude Conaway Vanderbilt, Harold Stirling Vanderbilt's widow, bequeathed $1 million to the hospital. In 2000 another new wing opened at the hospital. The Hospital partners with the Naval Station Newport in offering services to the military. Newport Hospital currently offers various services "including emergency care, diagnostic imaging, a birthing center, behavioral health unit, comprehensive surgical services, intensive care, acute inpatient and outpatient rehabilitation."

Hunter House (Newport, Rhode Island)

Hunter House (1748) is a historic house in Newport, Rhode Island. It is located at 54 Washington Street in the Easton's Point neighborhood, near the northern end of the Newport Historic District. History The original portion of Hunter House was built in 1748 for Colonial Deputy Governor Jonathan Nichols Jr. This large 2½-story house has a balustraded gambrel roof and heavy stud construction. In 1756, the property was sold to Colonel Joseph Wanton Jr., who was a deputy governor of the colony and a merchant. Wanton enlarged the house by adding a south wing and a second chimney, transforming the building into a formal Georgian mansion with a large central hall. Wanton remained a Loyalist during the American Revolution, and General William West ordered him to be imprisoned in Providence and tried by the legislature. He ultimately fled Newport when the British left the city. Local legend has it that space was at a premium aboard British ships when Loyalists were fleeing Newport, but Wanton had his own ship filled with goods and merchandise in preparation for what he hoped would be a short exile. However, the captain of the ship set sail while Wanton was ashore bidding farewell to his wife and turned over the ship to the Patriots in Providence as a prize of war, thus gaining the captain and crew a share of the prize money while simultaneously depriving Wanton of his wealth. The house was then used as the headquarters of Admiral de Ternay, commander of the French fleet when French forces stayed in Newport in 1780. After the war, Senator and Ambassador William Hunter bought the house and transformed it into a formal Georgian Colonial mansion with a large central hall. The house was purchased in 1945 to prevent its demolition, leading to the formation of the Preservation Society of Newport County, and it was designated a National Historic Landmark on November 24, 1968. It is currently open for limited public tours. The house displays period furnishings by Townsend and Goddard, paintings (including one by Gilbert Stuart), and a restored 18th-century garden. It is also known for its woodwork, including a carved pineapple over the doorway, a symbol of welcome throughout Colonial America. During the restoration, cabinetry that had been made in Newport was recovered from as far away as Scotland and installed in the house. Ralph Carpenter supervised the furniture restoration which includes "floor-to-ceiling paneling framed with bolection moldings, intricately twisted balusters on the stairs, eighteenth-century Delft tiles around many of the fireplaces, pilasters with Corinthian capitals, and marbleizing and grain painting throughout."

Newport Harbor Light

The Newport Harbor Light, also known as the Goat Island Light or Green Light, built in 1842, is located on north end of Goat Island, which is part of the city of Newport, Rhode Island, United States, in Narragansett Bay. The light was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1988. History The first light on Goat Island was constructed in 1823–1824, but was transported in 1851 to Prudence Island, where the structure still remains as the Prudence Island Light. The current light was constructed in 1842 a few yards off the coast of Goat Island, and was connected to Goat Island by a narrow dike (the area was filled in the 1960s for the hotel) because the previous light failed in adequately warning ships of a reef just a few yards off Goat Island. The original lighting apparatus, however, was transferred to the newer lighthouse in 1842. In 1864, an attached lighthouse keeper's house was built. In 1921, a submarine hit the breakwater, damaging the foundation of the keeper's house. An electric light was placed in the tower the following year. The damaged keeper's dwelling was later torn down. After a private developer purchased Goat Island in the 1960s, the land between the northern end of Goat Island and the light was filled in to build a hotel. In 2000, the Coast Guard leased the light to the American Lighthouse Foundation; it is managed by the Friends of Newport Harbor Lighthouse.

Phare de Newport Harbor

Le phare de Newport Harbor (en anglais : Newport Harbor Light), est un phare actif situé dans le port de Newport dans le Comté de Newport (État de Rhode Island). Il est inscrit au Registre national des lieux historiques depuis le 30 mars 1988. Histoire Le premier phare de l'île Goat a été construit entre 1823 et 1824, mais a ensuite été transporté vers l'île Prudence en 1851, où la structure subsiste sous le nom de phare de l'île Prudence. Le phare actuel a été construit en 1842 à quelques mètres de la côte de Goat Island. Il était relié à l'île de Goat par une digue étroite car le précédent phare avait échoué pour avertir de manière adéquate les navires de la présence d'un récif à quelques mètres de Goat Island. L'appareil d'éclairage d'origine a toutefois été transféré au nouveau phare en 1842. En 1864, une maison de gardien de phare attenante fut construite. En 1921, un sous-marin a percuté le brise-lames, endommageant la fondation de la maison du gardien. Une lampe électrique a été placée dans la tour l'année suivante. Le logement du gardien endommagé a été démoli par la suite. Après qu'un promoteur privé ait acheté Goat Island dans les années 1960, la terre située entre l'extrémité nord de Goat Island et le phare a été comblé pour la construction d'un hôtel. En 2000, la Garde côtière a loué le phare à la American Lighthouse Foundation (en). Il est géré par le Friends of Newport Harbor Lighthouse. Description Le phare actuel est une tour octogonale en pierre de granit avec une galerie et une lanterne de 11 m de haut, sur une fondation en granit. La tour est peinte en blanc et la lanterne est noire.Il émet, à une hauteur focale de 10 m, un feu fixe vert. Sa portée est de 11 milles nautiques (environ 20 km).
