Additional Information
Located along the Atlantic Ocean, Narragansett, Rhode Island, remains a popular summer destination, drawing visitors to its coastal charm and historic landmarks. This 1898 photograph captures the town at the turn of the century, a period of rapid technological advancements that transformed the United States culturally and economically. Featured in the image are the Towers of the Narragansett Casino, an enduring tribute to the region's rich history and its longstanding tourism industry. The Towers are the only surviving structure of the casino and were added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1969.
This photograph, with its distinctive aesthetic and unique style, transports the viewer back in time, forging a connection between past and present. The Narragansett Casino, once a rival to the grandeur of Newport, attracted the Northeast's social elite before it was destroyed by fire in 1900. Built in 1883, the casino was a masterpiece of Victorian Shingle Style architecture, a highly regarded style of the late 19th century, inspired by classic English design.
Today, the Towers remain a beloved landmark, frequently used for special events and standing as a reminder of Narragansett's elegant past. During its years of operation, the casino featured an impressive array of attractions, including boating, theater, billiards, card rooms, fine dining, and retail shops-a reflection of the lavish social scene that has long been a part of Rhode Island's coastal charm and continues to influence its vibrant culture today.
