      Ochre Court stands as a distinguished landmark along the Newport Cliff Walk in Rhode Island, epitomizing the opulence of the Gilded Age as one of the renowned "cottages" built during that era. Constructed between 1888 and 1892 for Ogden Goelet, a prominent American financier, by architect Richard Morris Hunt, it showcases the grandeur of French Gothic Revival architecture with its intricate stonework and soaring spires. After Goelet's death, the Sisters of Mercy acquired Ochre Court in 1947, and it became the main campus building of Salve Regina University. Today, the university utilizes Ochre Court as its main administrative building and a venue for events from lectures to concerts and conferences.
