The district encompasses five contributing buildings, one contributing site, five contributing structures and two contributing buildings associated with the oldest fish hatchery in the Western Hemisphere. It is still in use by the state of New York and named for Seth Green (1817-1888), an American pioneer in fish farming and who established the hatchery in 1864. Located on the property are the contributing main hatchery building (c. 1880), Queen Anne style manager's residence (c. 1889-1890), ice house (c. 1890), "Lake House" (c. 1903), a memorial to Seth Green (1935), and fish ponds originally constructed in the 1930s and 1950s.
