From tiny cottages in a turn-of-the-century camp meeting ground to
grand mansions on the hill, the classic New England mill town of
Willimantic, in northeast Connecticut, abounds with Victorian
architecture. It boasts the greatest number of Victorian homes per
capita on the East Coast, and all the major styles are represented:
Carpenter Gothic, Queen Anne, Stick, Italianate, and Second Empire.
Enjoy details of porches and porticos, doors and windows, towers
and gables, all carefully preserved in colorful splendor. Over 175
photographs showcase this charming place, which is enjoying a
renaissance based on its Victorian architecture and reflected in
its new nickname, "Romantic Willimantic."
