Industrial nodes and dense rail networks define the Blackstone River valley in the late nineteenth century. Large textile operations like the Sayles Bleachery in Saylesville and the Dunnell Print Works near the Seekonk River anchor local communities, while the Providence and Worcester R.R. and several branches of the N.Y. N.H. & H. R.R. facilitate the region's massive production capacity.
