History

Today the island is home to the mammoth Deer Island Waste Water Treatment Plant, which provides sewage treatment for the Boston area. Winthrop includes Snake Island (Massachusetts) Island in Boston Harbor as well as a portion of Logan Airport. In 1920, Winthrop was the second town in the Commonwealth to apply for and receive a Charter for a Representative Town Meeting, which continued to 2006. The island has a sordid past as an internment camp for Native Americans during King Philip's War, a quarantine station where many immigrants died, and the site of a county jail. Shortly thereafter, in 1852, Winthrop was incorporated as a town in its own right with a Board of Selectmen and Town Meeting form of government. Deer Island (Massachusetts) Island, though within the city limits of Boston, is located in Winthrop Bay.
