Description

This is a view of summer cottages at Grimes Cove on Ocean Point -- a promontory in East Boothbay. This image predates the start of World War I, and all of these cottages still existed in 2013.

All but the cottage on the far right remained the same through 2013. That cottage has since had some additions put onto its original structure. A road was built in front of these cottages at a date after this picture was taken.
