History: On May 4, 1776, the Colony of Rhode Island was the 1st of the thirteen colonies to renounce its allegiance to the British Crown. It was the last of the 13 colonies to sign the U.S. Constitution becoming the 13th state on May 29, 1790. The Rhode Island economy had a colonial base in fishing. In 1793, the waterpower of the Blackstone River was used to set-up the historic Slater Mill, the first water-powered cotton spinning mill in North America. For a while, Rhode Island was one of the leaders in textiles. The textile industry still constitutes a part of the Rhode Island economy but does not have the same power that it once had. As a result of Rhode Island’s industrial history, a number of abandoned factories remained, many of which are now being used for condominiums, museums, offices, and low-income and elderly housing. Rhode Island is ranked the smallest in size of all states at 1,214 sq. miles, and is 37 miles in width and 48 miles in length.
