CANAAN STREET

First known as "Broad Street," this early venture in town planning was laid out in 1788. About a mile in length and beautifully situated, starting about two miles in on next northerly road, the plan provided for an orderly arrangement of attractive homesteads.

Located at the corner of Canaan Street and US 4 in Canaan Village.

The Canaan Historic District was listed on the National Register in 1973.
