Webster Avenue

Detail of the 1873 “Plan of Provincetown Heights Belonging to the Cape Cod Land Co.,” surveyed by Rufus Cook. [Barnstable County Registry of Deeds, Plan Book 24, Page 17]


Webster Avenue, no relation whatever to Webster Place, showed up in an 1873 map of lots owned by the Cape Cod Land Company. Today, this avenue is only one block long, ending at “Atlantic Avenue,” or Miller Hill Road. “Millers Hill Avenue” on the 1873 map is the modern Priscilla Alden Road. “Standish Avenue” is Standish Way. “Parallel Street” is Bradford Street. The only property with a Webster Avenue address sits on the east half of what is shown above as Lot No. 48.
