My grandfather was Isaac Webster, the founder and owner of Riverside Dairy and Webster’s Ice Cream Stand on Merrimac Street. It’s a shame that these buildings are being demolished and will be replaced by sailboats. It’s important for Newburyporters to remember the past and what was the foundation of Newburyport.
Cindy,
If you have any older or present pictures of the property, I’d love to display them here. I always wondered if there was a connection between the two businesses. Now I know! If I was to make a guess I would bet most of the boats that are going to be stored on the Webster/Riverside site are for boat owners who do not live in NBPT , but like how their boat looks going down the NBPT section of the Merrimac River.

Ahh…Websters. Best Ice Cream, Meanest lady. Good old “Ruthy”. She made every trip to Websters and event.
Also…my Neighbor, Pete Daigle used to drive a Riverside Dairy Milk Truck. He ended up buying one and converting it into a camper. They had a “lot” up at Tewsbury Pond.
