| Welcome |
Newburyport has one of the largest National Register Historic Districts in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, with over 2,900 contributing structures. In 1981, with grant asistance from the MA Historical Commission (MHC), the City embarked on the ambititious task of documenting these properties, by photographing each and completing a survey form to initially assess the historic significance of each. As MHC's web site explains,
The National Register nomination form of the Newburyport Historic Disrtict provides an excellent introduction to the historic properties that can be seen throughout the area. For more specific information, please refer to individual property forms listed by address to the right. For Fruit Street Information, please go here. This web page was made possible through the efforts of Arnold, a volunteer in the Newburyport Office of Planning & Development. Thank you Arnold! |
