About this map

The Quonset Point Naval Air Station and the U S Naval Reservation dominate the coastline of the West Passage in this mid-century view of Rhode Island. This installation, along with the Construction Battalion Center, highlights the area's strategic maritime importance during the Cold War era. Inland, the landscape retains its historical character with numerous textile-era settlements like Belleville, La Fayette, and Hamilton clustered around local water power sources such as Belleville Pond and the Hamilton Reservoir.
