1. Brustolon House Marker
This building was built about 1863 as the George Greenman & Co. store. The store, which sold produce and other goods to the shipyard and mill employees and nearby families until the 1880s, was located on the first floor, with living quarters for the store-keeper above. It later became an apartment house. Like many older American buildings, it was covered with ceramic siding in the mid-1900s.
Mystic Seaport is located on the site of the Greenman shipyard and textile mill. Named for the Mystic Seaport trustee who last owned it, the Brustolon House is used as an office building by Mystic Seaport. If you would like to find out more about Mystic Seaport, please stop by our Visitor Reception Center opposite the first traffic light to your left.
