  • Ri-138 E Newport, RI, 02840, USA - Newport

    Nice road signs: CCRI and Fort Adams. Knocked down by wind two years ago. Intersection of Sycamore St & Bayside Ave.

    I've contacted RITBA twice. I've contacted RIDOT twice. Received promises of action.

    If they are in an abandoned status, they'd look great in a dorm room or a local bar ;-)

    1. Which city department is the overall owner for this monument which celebrates the participation of France on the side the American colonists during the Revolutionary War?

  • 180 Broadway Newport, Rhode Island - Newport
    On the new sidewalk near the intersection of Equality Park Pl and Broadway is a beautiful circular design made with stones. At least one major stone has come loose from the cement bed and is sitting off the sidewalk. The stones don't appear well seated into the concrete bed.

    The fencing atop the sea wall has deteriorated. Some of the vertical supports have detached from the sea wall making the fence unstable. It is a safety hazard and need to be replaced ASAP.
