Properties Excluded
State officials excluded 78 buildings from the initial district that were located on Huntington Turnpike, Nichols Avenue and Shelton Road. These buildings were a part of the original district proposed by the Trumbull Historic District Study Committee for Nichols Farms in May 1976. The Ephraim Hawley House, Zachariah Curtiss House and barn (built before 1721), the summer home of American folklorist Will Geer and a home of helicopter inventor Igor Sikorsky were excluded. A subsequent Historic Building Survey, completed in 2010, has recommended these properties be added to increase the existing historic district.
