It also holds an unusual collection of domestic designs by local architect Clinton Wheeler Wisner, along with work by E.G.W. Dietrich.","narrative":"Warwick Village Historic District takes in most of the older parts of a village in southern Orange County, New York. It centers on Main Street's commercial blocks and the residential avenues that radiate from it. Of its 208 contributing structures, two date from the eighteenth century, including the 1764 Shingle House and Baird's Tavern of 1766, and more than half were built between 1860 and 1900. Growth followed the railroad and the village's closeness to New York City, and the 1893 Lehigh & Hudson River station and several railroad-era hotels survive. Oakland, Maple and Colonial Avenues hold large late nineteenth and early twentieth century houses, some designed by E.G.W. Dietrich. Clinton Avenue is notable for small, inventive houses by local architect and mayor Clinton Wheeler Wisner, such as the Warwickshire and the Devonshire. Strip development and urban renewal bypassed the village, so its buildings keep much of their original scale, setting and detail. Twenty-one later structures do not contribute.","period_of_significance":null,"architect_builder":"Clinton Wheeler Wisner (local architect); E.G.W.
