Williams Plains (Bowie, Maryland)

Williams Plains is a historic house located in White Marsh Recreational Park in Bowie, Maryland. Built in the early to mid-19th century for Hon. John Johnson, a judge of the Maryland Court of Appeals, this 2+1⁄2-story brick house showcases Greek Revival architectural influences, particularly in its interior decorative details, which remain largely intact. The house is significant for its representation of domestic architecture in Prince George's County during that era. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1980, making it a noteworthy site for tourists and researchers interested in American history and architecture.
