Its residences, churches, shops, civic buildings, village green and cemetery grew up along the Great Western Turnpike and around two centers: the commercial crossing now marked by Pickle Park, and the green near State Street. Early buildings, mostly frame or brick in the Federal and Greek Revival styles, reflect New England traditions brought by the first settlers. Notable examples include two 1830s frame churches, the brick East Bloomfield Academy of 1838, a former town hall of about 1845, and a Civil War memorial dedicated in 1868. Later Italianate, Stick and Queen Anne houses stand toward the district edges. The village once supported carriage makers, a drill factory and hop farming. The district was listed because so much of this nineteenth-century fabric survives with little intrusion.","period_of_significance":null,"architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Federal, Greek Revival, Gothic Revival, Italianate, Queen Anne, Stick/Eastlake, Colonial Revival","criteria":[],"status_note":"Most buildings retain high integrity and the district has no non-contributing primary resources.
