      WHY NEWPORT?

      ––––––––

      There are two wildly divergent sides to Newport that have always fascinated me.

      On the one hand you have the quaint cobblestone streets lined with galleries, shops, cafés, stores filled with artisanally-crafted wares, tacky tourist traps, the port area where you’re reminded that this was a place as connected to the sea as any weather-beaten town on the Maine Coast.

      And then on the other hand, you have the cottages, as the wealthy robber barons of the Gilded Age quaintly called their mega-mansions that make this town unique in all the world.
