Downtown Seymour Historic District

A 21-acre National Register district listed August 25, 1983, made up mostly of vernacular Queen Anne wood-frame houses plus commercial and industrial buildings from about 1880-1940. Its southern end holds the former Waterman Pen Complex, and 26-28 Main Street, long known as the Trestle Tavern building and built around 1850, is believed to be the district's oldest structure. Freely walkable public streets; town hall, post office and fire station are all still in municipal use here.
