Discover the Lyman Allyn Art Museum
The Lyman Allyn welcomes
visitors from New London,
southeastern Connecticut and
from all over the world.
Established by a gift from Harriet
Allyn in memory of her seafaring
father, the museum opened the
doors of its beautiful neo-classical
building in 1932. Today it houses a
fascinating collection of over
16,000 objects from ancient times
to the present: artworks from
Africa, Asia, the Americas, and
Europe, with particularly strong
collections of American paintings,
decorative arts, and Victorian toys
and doll houses. Outside, a
sculpture trail highlighting 10
large scale works is surrounded by
11 acres of gardens and lawns.

When John Winthrop, Jr. founded the city in 1646, siting
its location along the river as its most important feature, he
recognized the potential of this great, deep, and protected
river with its immediate access to the Atlantic Ocean.
From the earliest days of ship building and trade with the
West Indies the Thames River has been the economic engine,
driving settlement and development in New London. The
city became Connecticut’s official port of entry in 1702 and
river traffic grew apace. A beacon marking the entrance to
Thames Harbor has been in place since the early 1700s, and
the first lighthouse was built and turned over to the federal
government in 1789. The present lighthouse was built on the
same site in 1801.
Parade Plaza overlooks the Thames River and a walk along
the Waterfront Park (cross the tracks next to Union Station)
offers views of the ferries and occasional submarines. From
the Parade, visitors can easily walk Bank and State Streets
to explore shops, businesses and historic neighborhoods, all
within this historic waterfront district.
Every era of American history is reflected along the streets
and in the neighborhoods of New London. As a major
transportation hub, it attracted emigrants from all over the
world and their contributions enrich the city today.
The fine architecture on State Street is a visual demonstration
of the wealth created during the economic booms created by
whaling and new industry in the 19th and early 20th century.
Nationally known architects built splendid churches. Henry
Hobson Richardson’s influence began with Union Station
and extends to the Public Library; other fine buildings were
influenced by his design.
Enhance your time in New London by visiting the city’s
excellent variety of restaurants, art galleries and small shops
offering unique specialties not found in larger shopping
centers. History and the arts in this maritime city provide
unusual opportunities to the visitor.

7. Public Benefits and Costs. Local stores in town centers require
comparatively little infrastructure and make more efficient use of
public services relative to big box stores and strip shopping malls.
8. Environmental Sustainability. Local stores help to sustain vibrant,
compact, walkable town centers – which in turn are essential to
reducing sprawl, automobile use, habitat loss, and air and water
pollution.
9. Competition. A marketplace of tens of thousands of small
businesses is the best way to ensure innovation and low prices over
the long-term.
10. Product Diversity. A multitude of small businesses, each selecting
products based not on a national sales plan, but on their own
interests and the needs of their local customers, guarantees a much
broader range of product choices.
