The Town of Bridgewater historically flourished as an
industrial and agricultural center within Southeastern
Massachusetts. The historic character of the community is
largely preserved in the Federal, Italianate and Greek
revival commercial and civic structures surrounding the
central common. Landscaping on the common and elsewhere in
the downtown is meticulously maintained by the Bridgewater
Improvement Association, a non-profit organization devoted
to the beautification of the community. The Bridgewater
downtown remains a vital center of community life where such
activities as autumn and Christmas holiday festivals are
conducted each year. Bridgewater today is a growing
community of over 20,000. Its central location at the
interchange of Route 24 and Interstate 495 provides
convenient access to Boston, Providence and Cape Cod. The
town also carries the distinction of hosting the oldest and
largest state college and correctional institution in
Massachusetts. This rich history and diversity of activities
has made Bridgewater an attractive place to residents and
businesses alike.
