Welcome to the village of Waterford, a National Historic Landmark. The landmark designation was made in recognition of the town's well-preserved 18th and 19th-century architecture and landscape. Fifty-nine of Waterford's 107 buildings were constructed before 1861

Today, when you visit Waterford, you will experience many of the same views as residents in the 19th century. Waterford preserves the ambiance and many of the structures that characterized it during its heyday as a flour milling town in the 19th century. Residents of Waterford see themselves as caretakers of the historic homes where they live. They maintain their houses so that they reflect their history and only make changes that will not adversely change the character of the village. In one hundred years from now, the village will hopefully look as it does today. "Of over 2,000 National Historic Landmarks,  Waterford is the only one of its kind".  64% of Waterford's 97 homes were built before 1861.  Only four were built after 1922.
