Davisville

Davisville is a village within North Kingstown, Rhode Island. Historically, it was known as the home of the Atlantic Seabees, the U.S. Navy's mobile construction battalions, from 1942 until the base's closure in 1991. The port facilities at Quonset Point/Davisville are operated by the Rhode Island Economic Development Corporation and handle ocean-borne commerce, including petroleum, automobiles, scrap iron, lumber, and steel. This area is part of a large industrial park with rail and air connections, developed on land previously occupied by the Quonset Point Naval Air Station.12
