Boothe Memorial Park preserves the Boothe brothers' eccentric 32-acre collection of buildings — a clocktower museum, chapel, blacksmith shop, windmill, trolley station, and an original Merritt Parkway tollbooth.
Today Stratford is a Connecticut shoreline town in the Bridgeport metro, where colonial harbor history meets twentieth-century aviation. Boothe Memorial Park spreads its salvaged history across 32 acres above the river, Stratford Point Light still marks the mouth of the Housatonic, and the Lordship beaches face out onto Long Island Sound. Our Stratford designs gather that identity into wearable form — the oyster shell, the lighthouse, the harbor, the Sound. From a 1639 oyster harbor to the birthplace of the American helicopter — wear a little of Stratford's Connecticut history.
Why People Visit Stratford Connecticut
Stratford draws visitors with a rare mix of colonial harbor history, Long Island Sound shoreline, and aviation heritage. Travelers find it both a 1639 oyster town with a lighthouse and beaches and the birthplace of the American helicopter, with the quiet, layered character of the Connecticut shore. It is historic, maritime, and unmistakably New England.
