Get your swim trunks out...

Attorney General Peter F. Kilmartin will present City leaders with $850,000 tomorrow morning during a ceremonial ‘groundbreaking’ to mark the next phase of the City’s stormwater improvement project at Sabin Point Park beach. The funding is part of the money that the State of Rhode Island received from the federal Volkswagen settlement for its emissions testing scandal. Once the remediation project is completed, Sabin Point will become the first and only beach in Upper Narragansett Bay to be opened to swimming in nearly a century.

In all my years of researching Crescent Park, I have never found a photograph that pre-dates the building of the 1st carousel on the beach...UNTIL NOW! This is the year of, or the year after the park was founded (1886-87). You can see the CRESCENT PARK HOTEL behind the trees and the Cafe to the left (which would become the Shore Dinner Hall). The bath houses didn't even have Boyden's sign "BOYDEN'S CRESCENT PARK" posted yet. A REMARKABLE PHOTO!
