Chartered in 1656, the
Town of Bridgewater Massachusetts historically flourished as an industrial
and agricultural center within Southeastern Massachusetts. The raising
of livestock and crop cultivation on farms comprising several hundred acres
were common in the outlying areas of the community. As early as the 18th
century, foundries were operating along the northern periphery of the downtown
where iron forgings for the Revolutionary and Civil Wars were produced.
A century later, shoe, nail and brick manufacturing emerged in the area,
employing hundreds of former agricultural workers from nearby farms or
immigrants from distant lands.
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 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. Bridgewater Massachusetts is located in Southeastern Massachusetts, bordered by East Bridgewater and West Bridgewater on the north, Halifax on the east, Middleborough on the south, and Raynham on the west. Bridgewater is 8 miles south of Brockton; 27 miles south of Boston. |
