Winthrop House
166 Rowayton Avenue
During the eventful year of 1848 Charles L. Raymond built a four-
story summer hotel on the southeast corner of what is now Wilson and Rowayton Avenues. Guests could enjoy a large fenced in lawn
(where the real estate office and stores are today) and walk along
some property on the Five Mile River. After a period as a private
dwelling, circa World War One, it was purchased during the Second
World War by the Bassler brothers.
