A panoramic view of downtown Newport and "The Cove" (also called "The Basin"), taken above Long Wharf (looking east). Railroad tracks are visible to the left of The Cove; Newport's train station is located at the top of The Cove towards center. Visible landmarks in the distance (from left to right) include St. John the Evangelist Church, Marlborough Street Fire Station, the Colony House, First Baptist Church, and Second Congregational Church.

Photo appears to have been made from two original negatives (see line down center).
