The Story

A contributing property in the Provincetown Historic District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989. Occupying the tip of Cape Cod, this district encompasses the historic core of Provincetown, a community shaped over more than two centuries by the sea. With a period of significance reaching from the early 18th century through the mid-20th, it grew into one of New England's foremost fishing and whaling ports, and its dense streetscape of Federal, Georgian, and mid-19th-century houses reflects both maritime commerce and the successive Yankee, Portuguese, and other communities who settled here. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries the town also became a celebrated artists' and writers' colony, adding literary and performing-arts significance to its maritime and commercial history. The district is significant for its architecture, maritime history, industry, commerce, and community planning and development.
