Title A name given to the resource New London Custom House Description An account of the resource Coast (Defense), Grace McGee The New London Custom House (1833) is the site of New London’s integral efforts to thrive as a port city through the presence of the United States Customs Service. The USCS combats maritime piracy and regulated embargos. The federal government still uses the Custom House for official business, which makes it the oldest continuously operating custom house in the United States. Additionally, the building houses the New London Maritime Society, which operates as a source of New London’s maritime history. Today, the Custom House stands as a testament to the longevity of New London’s maritime history, both with the Maritime Society as a source of historical objects and documents and with the federal government activities still occurring in the building, after hundreds of years.
