A "You Are Here" map can be found on an information kiosk in Blackstone River State Park north of the Captain Wilbur Kelly House Transportation Museum in Lincoln, Rhode Island. The map is on the west face of the four-sided structure.

The explanatory stand is constructed with a stone base, a wooden main section painted green, and topped by a wood shingle pyramid roof. Each side of the kiosk presents a plastic, poster-sized educational board within an arched opening.

This tall and narrow map can be seen along the right side of the "Blackstone River State Park - Welcome" segment. The words "You Are Here" and a five-pointed star are in dark red. Perhaps the sign was relocated, or, more likely, the graphic designer took some liberty to make things fit at this scale, and the star actually marks a spot about 100 yards northeast and across a bridge over the river.

The place is easily accessible by car with nearby parking and it is right on the Blackstone River Bikeway, a path that is also used by walkers and joggers.
