The New York, New Haven, & Hartford's station in Naugatuck, Connecticut, was designed by architect Henry Bacon in a Spanish Colonial Revival style with tiled roof and stucco walls. Built between 1908 and 1910, it was unique for a New England railroad station. In the two circa 1910 views, we see the station when it was newly built. The last card, based on a photograph taken in the early 1950s, shows the station as being relatively unchanged from its earlier years. The station still stands today and is the home of the Naugatuck Historical Society's museum.
Thank you for the cards showing the station at Naugatuck, Connecticut--my home town. I'm a (very) amateur watercolorist and am beginning a series of station paintings, beginning with Naugy.
