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. Few, if any, of these men ever lived here, but their farms prospered. Deer Island (Massachusetts) Island, though within the city limits of Boston, is located in Winthrop Bay. This house is still standing and is maintained, for public viewing, by the Winthrop Improvement and Historical Association.[http://www.wihaonline.org/] In 1739, what is now Chelsea, Revere, and Winthrop withdrew from Boston due to governmental control disputes and became the Town of Chelsea. Standing on Winthrop's edge one can see the city of Boston and Deer Island (Massachusetts) Island.

The town was first settled in 1635.
