What a boring waste of waterfront land.

I never cease to be amazed by LeHack in how every new building added to Newport seems to either exactly match or outdo the previous buildings in terms of absolute, soulless banality.

Nothing built in the ~35 year span of Newport's existence has warranted any degree of architectural merit. The biggest architectural innovation in the history of Newport is the use of an ellipse rather than corners. And even that building only stands out at all because the land it was built on literally stands out from the shore. At least it makes use of vacant land.
