Description of the district
The buildings within the district date from the mid-19th century and are the best preserved from that period in Vineyard Haven . Williams Street was the second main street to be laid out after the city was founded in the 1830s. The street itself was developed by Thomas Bradley, who also owned the Old Mill in West Tisbury . The houses built there in the style of the Greek Revival are almost unchanged to this day and some of them still belong to the direct descendants of their first owners.
