The Historic District Working Group's mission is to ensure a sustainable town center that is economically
viable, green, and pedestrian-friendly while preserving the historic character of the waterfront.
Goals:
To respect Blue Hill’s sea-faring past, its shipping trade in timber, seafood, and granite, centered on the harbor while planning for sustainability in response to climate change.
To provide public spaces, with walking paths connecting parks, town institutions, shops, and art centers.
To make the town center welcoming, safe and accessible to those with limited mobility, accommodating everyone from toddlers to seniors.
To keep historic structures intact in ways that are useful and attractive,
To support affordable housing, needed for both seasonal and year-round residents.

The Group was formed in 2022 by members of the Blue Hill Historical Society, business owners, civic leaders and retirees with expertise in various fields. If you have an interest in learning more or adding your voice to this effort, send us an email at Info@BlueHillHistoric.org
