Williams Plains is a Greek Revival brick residence located in White Marsh Recreational Park at Bowie in Prince George's County, Maryland. Built in 1812 for Hon. John Johnson, a judge of the Maryland Court of Appeals, the 2½-story house exemplifies early-to-mid-19th-century domestic architecture with exceptional preservation of its period details. The south façade displays Flemish bond brickwork while the remaining walls use six-course common bond. The interior retains nearly complete Greek Revival–influenced decorative elements—including trim, mantels, and paneled doors—making it a rare and documented record of Prince George's County domestic design from the first half of the nineteenth century. A lower 2½-story addition in stretcher bond veneer construction was added around 1942. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.
