Indian Hill Avenue Historic District is a historic district in Portland, Connecticut that was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983. It includes Greek Revival and Late Victorian architecture. When listed, the district included 17 contributing buildings (as opposed to 15 non-contributing buildings), two contributing sites and one contributing object.〔〔 and (''Accompanying 19 photos, from 1980'' )〕 Among the contributing buildings are eight from the 1700s, including the Thomas Stevenson House was built c. 1766 and the Abiel Cheney-George Lewis, Jr., House built c.1785.〔 The listing boundaries "were chosen to reflect the patterns of historic settlement, insofar as they are known. The river forms easily delineated borders on the north and west, and Main Street was taken as the eastern boundary because its character is predominantly 19th-century, reflecting a later period of growth in the area's history than the largely 18th-century Indian Hill settlement. The boundaries of the district include all of the hypothetical extent of burials as posited by the report of the Public Archaeology Survey Team, as well as coinciding closely with the boundaries of the Wangunk tract sold in 1765."〔 ==See also== *National Register of Historic Places listings in Middlesex County, Connecticut 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Indian Hill Avenue Historic District」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
