Newport and its surrounding coastal defenses dominate this tactical survey, conducted by the Corps of Engineers. The map details a landscape heavily influenced by naval and military presence at the end of the first World War, featuring prominent installations such as Fort Adams, Fort Wetherill, and the Naval Torpedo Station on Goat Island. To the west, the coastline of Point Judith Neck and Narragansett Pier is traced alongside the route of the Sea View R.R. Co. Electric R.R., which provided a vital transit link for these shore communities.
