About Memorial

Boulevard

Memorial Boulevard, located between Newport Harbor and Easton’s Beach, is a coastal and commercial Newport neighborhood with a broad boulevard streetscape and ocean-bound breezes. The neighborhood’s character concentrates at Memorial Boulevard and Bellevue Avenue, where coffee counters, galleries, and polished storefronts line the walk. Anchors include the International Tennis Hall of Fame, Audrain Automobile Museum, and the Newport Art Museum. Architecture shifts from Gilded Age stonework to tidy storefront blocks and shaded side streets. Sidewalks trace toward Cliff Walk viewpoints and the sand at Easton’s Beach. The pace feels active by day, with a refined, town-center energy after dark.
