to the Waterbury
Tour. We invite you to stroll the streets allowing yourself to
visualize stately elms and tall, rounded maples canopying the
unpaved narrow streets in residential areas. As you amble along
South and North Main Street, recall that in 1927 a devastating
flood filled the street where you now walk with water reaching
to the second story of the highest buildings. Watch for architectural
details: varying roof styles, sidelights flanking entryways,
unusual doors and windows. Take special note of two Sultanís
bath windows at 88 South Main Street and imagine what you will.
Bear in mind that many garages, apartments and house extensions
once were the horse- and carriage-barns of pre-automobile times.
You may request hard copies of this Historical Walking Tour (and
others) by calling 802-229-4619.
