Car Barn History
Originally built in 1899 as the Green Line Car Barn, 1102 Brighton Street served as a vital hub for the region’s electric streetcar system—later transitioning to house buses and trolleybuses through the mid-20th century. Its soaring ceilings, exposed brick, and industrial charm speak to over a century of transportation history. Now thoughtfully restored, the Newport Car Barn blends historic character with modern amenities, offering a one-of-a-kind atmosphere for weddings, corporate events, and community gatherings. Its legacy and architecture create a backdrop that feels both timeless and unforgettable.
