Summary

Description
English: Buildings on the west side of Main Street, Middletown, Connecticut, USA. From left to right:
  • (partly visible at left) 171 Main Street, former site of Hall House. Now part of Middlesex Plaza.
  • I'm not sure if any of what is visible in back is old. There might be part of the former Middlesex Opera House/Middlesex Theater, 179 Main Street (rear), designed by Francis H. Kimball and built 1892 behind Middlesex Assurance Co.
  • 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...
All of these are contributing properties of the Metro South Historic District, which is on the National Register of Historic Places.
