Historic Naugatuck
The Naugatuck Center Historic District encompasses the institutional, commercial, and residential nucleus of the Borough of Naugatuck. Located on the west side of the steep Naugatuck River Valley, the Center consists of a grid of North-South streets that parallel the river.
The District rises in stages from Water Street, which runs along an embankment above the river, to a fairly level narrow plain occupied by Church and Meadow Streets, the principal downtown thoroughfares. On the slope of the hill that borders the western side of the District, Hillside Avenue winds its way up to Terrace and Fairview Avenues, where most residential properties are confined to the west side of these streets and overlook the downtown some 150 feet below.
