An Afternoon in Historic Watertown, New York

Watertown's Public Square Historic District is today's destination. 

The grassy area of Public Square 

statues include:

The Civil War Memorial

A memorial to those who
served in World War I
& World War II.

This fountain graces

Public Square

The tower of First Baptist Church
dominates the lower end of
Public Square.

This statue commemorates

Roswell Pettibone Flower,

 Postmaster of Watertown

from 1854-1860 &

New York State Governor 

from  1891-1895.

Just down the street is
the Roswell P. Flower
Memorial Library.

We chose the best day to visit!

The Farmer's Market is open

on Wednesdays.

Beautifully restored
homes delight...

This grand old home is

now the D.L. Calarco

Funeral Home.

I like the tower & turret on
St. Paul's Episcopal Church.

This home with the 

wrap around porch

is my favorite.

Ashbury Methodist
Episcopal Church 
was built in 1912.







We enjoyed our walk on this sunny Wednesday.  I appreciate the community's efforts to preserve it's past for future generations.
