About the Business
New Town, located on Island Drive in Williamsburg, Virginia, is a historical institution that showcases the expansion of Jamestown beyond the original fort built in 1607. Surveyor William Claiborne mapped out the area to the east of the fort in the 1620s, which quickly became a bustling part of Virginia's first capital. Visitors can explore the 17th-century story of New Towne through exhibits such as The Greate Road, an Early Highway, Backstreete, Main Street of Jamestown, Tradesmen on the Lot of Governor Harvey, and A Timeline for Structures at Jamestown Related to the Chiles Family. Discover the rich history and vibrant culture of this important part of America's past at New Town.

Reviews
"The original Jamestowne settlement grew and expanded, and this is the site for that expansion. There's not much left to see but there's plenty to read on the information boards. Access is via the Historic Jamestowne Visitor Center and requires a paid ticket."
