Old Town, located between Gloucester Street and the East River, is a historic and waterfront Brunswick neighborhood with brick-lined blocks and a working-harbor backdrop. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Gloucester Street near the Ritz Theatre, where galleries, coffee counters, and locally run eateries cluster under old storefront awnings. Community pillars include the Ritz Theatre, Silver Bluff Brewing Company, and Tipsy McSway’s. Architecture leans toward restored cottages and low-rise commercial buildings with coastal patina. Sidewalks trace toward the waterfront, where shrimp boats and marsh views shape the daily rhythm. Public squares and pocket parks add shaded pauses between shops and docks.
