The district consists of Williams Memorial Park (whose design is attributed to Frederick Law Olmsted), and 20 buildings that line it to the north and west. The area was developed through the efforts of members of the locally prominent Williams family, whose fortune was made in the whaling industry, and contains some of New London's finest late-19th century architecture. It is the site of New London's former "Second Burial Ground" with the remains and memorials removed to Cedar Grove Cemetery during the latter half of the 19th century.The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on December 3, 1987.
