Known as the "Town of Homes," Belmont's historic resources present a panorama of the architectural styles (PDF) that have been popular in this country over the past three centuries. Throughout the Town there are both vernacular and high style examples of a variety of architectural styles. Many buildings blend characteristics of two or more styles, reflecting both evolution of architectural forms and alterations made by owners who sought to keep their houses up-to-date. Large numbers or concentrations of a given style can reflect a period of great population growth or the development of a certain area within a relatively short time period.
