"The New Berlin Historic District consists of 122 properties arranged in an irregular cross centered at the main "Four Corners" of the village. The New Berlin Historic District includes the main commercial area, consisting of approximately one-half block each of West, Genesee and North and South Main Streets, several blocks of the oldest residential streets to the south (South Main Street), east (Genesee Street), and north (North Main, Academy and Cushman Streets); and a small grouping of railroad-related structures on Railroad Avenue. The New Berlin Historic District boundary encompasses the village's most intensive concentration of historically and architecturally significant properties and excludes areas which have lost their integrity to intrusive development and inappropriate alterations."
