Narragansett Improvement Company was first formed by Edward and John A. Everson from the firm of Everson & Snow, sewer contractors, and was incorporated in 1893, to engage in asphalt paving.

Kirke B. Everson Sr. joined the company in 1920 after his graduation from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and served as a Captain of Infantry in World War I. He became President of the Company in 1928 on the death of Edward and the retirement of John. Narragansett Improvement Company was re-incorporated in Rhode Island in 1937. Kirke B. Everson Jr. joined the Company in 1939 after his graduation from Bryant College. He left the company to serve 10 years in the United States Air Force until his discharge as a Major in 1949. He became Vice President in 1954. In 1972, after the death of Kirke Sr., he became President and Treasurer.
