Aerial view of the 1870 Rose Island Light
built to an award-winning design by Vermont architect Albert Dow on Rose Island in Narragansett Bay, off Newport, Rhode Island. Now operated by a private foundation, the lighthouse has become a travel destination, where visitors can spend a night or a week as the "lighthouse keeper," even completing chores. Behind it is the Claiborne Pell Bridge that connects Newport with the town of Jamestown on Conanicut Island
