  • Das Newport Casino ist ein Gebäude im Seebad Newport in Rhode Island an der nordamerikanischen Ostküste. Es wurde 1880 errichtet und war von 1881 bis 1914 Austragungsort der amerikanischen Tennismeisterschaften (heute US Open). Seit 1954 beherbergt es das Tennismuseum International Tennis Hall of Fame. 1987 wurde es als besonders schützenswertes Gebäude in die Liste der National Historic Landmarks aufgenommen. Entgegen dem Namen handelte es sich nie um eine Spielbank. Vielmehr bezeichnet Casino hier ein exklusives Clubhaus für Angehörige der Oberschicht. (de)
