Williamsburg
Williamsburg, the Colonial Capital of Virginia, was established in 1699. Called by President Roosevelt, “the most historic avenue in America,” Williamsburg’s Duke of Gloucester Street anchors America’s premier outdoor living museum, the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation. Each year hundreds of thousands of visitors flock to experience 18th century America and unique shopping, dining, entertainment and culture. Williamsburg’s famous College of William and Mary, plus its prime location, educated workforce and high quality of life make the City an attractive and engaging setting for any business.
