The towns roots begin as Canaan Parish in 1731, which was considered a religious entity of Norwalk and Stamford, and not planned as a town. Even when New Canaan was incorporated in 1801, there was no main street or town hall. Initially an agricultural community, the town’s major industry evolved into shoemaking. Community enclaves within the town started popping up -Ponus Ridge, Oenoke Ridge, Talmadge Hill and Silvermine to name a few. Around 60 years ago, a number of teachers and students from the Harvard Graduate School of Design moved to New Canaan and helped shape the town’s residential architecture as we know it today.
