 It was during the mid-19th century that most of the village's housing stock was built.Although not always built by the mill owners, the Cushmans owned a great deal of the local housing stock by the 1870s.Much of it was in relatively conservative architectural styles, with a large amount of Greek Revival construction persisting into the 1880s, even while modest versions of Italianate, Second Empire, and Queen Anne Victorians were also being built.
