I was at the Colony House on the fourth of July and then again for the French in Newport. A beautiful and well maintained building that is governed by the Newport Historical Society, I believe. It was really ool to see all the people queuing up to go upstairs where the legislature once sat. Our friends on Wikipedia gave this short history: The Old Colony House, also known as Old State House or Newport Colony House, is located at the east end of Washington Square in the city of Newport, Rhode Island, United States. It is a brick Georgian-style building completed in 1741. It was the meeting place for the colonial legislature. From independence in 1776 to the early 20th century, the state legislature alternated its sessions between here and the Rhode Island State House in Providence.
