About this map

The R.I. Agricultural College anchors the northeastern corner of this 1919 landscape, marking a period of educational expansion in South Kingstown. The coastal region is defined by a series of significant salt ponds and barrier beaches, including Ninigret Pond and Quonochontaug Pond, which separate the inland terrain from the Atlantic. This era captures a complex transportation network where the New York New Haven and Hartford Railroad intersects with specialized lines like the Wood River Branch Railroad and the Narragansett Pier Railroad.
