Watertown Historic District Overlay
In order to maintain the distinctive appearance of the Watertown Central Business District, these guidelines will enable the City to plan the growth of its Central Business District and, the building Owners to provide sympathetic approaches for the Stewardship of the Historic Properties in the Watertown Historic District. The collective and individual appearance of each building adds to the rich architectural setting of the District. These details include the lush polychromatic, ornamental brick work, window and door detail and trim, wall covering and load bearing fabric, individual store front detail and the collective association of each building of this Art Deco Square and neighborhood.
