Tripping on Travel: Scituate, Rhode Island

One may find Rhode Island is full of history if one goes looking for it. Scituate, Rhode Island is the first New England town I've read about to have been settled by "emigrants" from another Scituate. They came from Scituate, Massachusetts, a seacoast town. Wikipedia goes on to explain that in 1915, "the Rhode Island General Assembly voted to take 14,800 acres (60 km2) of land in Scituate (38% of the town) to create a reservoir to supply fresh water to greater Providence." The project, which became the Scituate Reservoir, resulted in the loss of several communities and properties. But Wikipedia doesn't specifically say if this was by Eminent Domain or not. "This project resulted in the condemnation of 1,195 buildings, including 375 houses, seven schools, six churches, six mills, thirty dairy farms, eleven ice houses, post offices, and an electric railway system, the Providence and Danielson Railway system. The hamlets of Kent, Richmond, Rockland, South Scituate, Ashland, Saundersville, Ponaganset and parts of North Scituate and Clayville disappeared forever." Wikipedia goes on to cite it's WW2 history, when a Federal Communications Commission Radio Intelligence Division monitoring facility near Chopmist Hill intercepted German HF communications. "Because of this, in 1946, the Chopmist Hill area was considered as a candidate for the location of the headquarters of the United Nations."
