Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Buildings on the west side of Main Street, Middletown, Connecticut, USA. From left to right:
  • a tiny bit of 179 Main Street, former Middlesex Assurance Co., built 1867, now part of Middlesex Plaza
  • 191-195 Main Street. At least part of this building dates from 1835, but according to the NRHP nomination "a brick fire wall down the center of the building, suggest[s] the possibility that originally it was one-half its present size... [B]y 1856 both halves were in place, but as a two and one-half story building with gable roof... The full third story was added c. 1891, along with a new front facade...
  • 203 Main Street (corner of College Street), former Universalist Church, built 1839, later (from 1916, and with its appearancemuch altered) Odd Fellows hall, now a Thai restaurant.

All of these are contributing properties of the Metro South Historic District, which is on the National Register of Historic Places.

Partly visible at right is the former Farmers & Mechanics Bank, 225 Main Street, now Citizens Bank, built 1920. That is out of the Metro South Historic District, but is the southernmost building of the Main Street Historic District.

In the background at right, the modern-day MiddleOak Insurance high-rise.
