Governor’s Island
“Governor Estates” – Governor’s Island brochure, 1928. This marked the beginning of the island’s subdivision into building lots. The Stilson Hutchins mansion, which had been the only house on the island from 1885 until the 1928 development, burned down on August 1, 1935.
A view of the Belknap Mountains from Governor’s Island around the same time as the brochure. There is almost no development seen in the view.
