In the early 19th century, there were several mills and factories along the Aspetuck River which flows from Lake Waramaug into the village center. More recently, there was a retail renaissance on the main street starting in the 1980&#39;s with the opening of distinctive antique stores, garden shops, home and gift emporiums that include <a href="http://www.jseitz.com/home.html">J.Seitz &amp; Co</a>, <a href="http://www.pergolahome.com/about.html">Pergola</a>, <a href="http://privethouse.com/">Privet House</a>, <a href="http://dawnhillantiques.com/">Dawn Hill Antiques</a> and <a href="http://www.newprestonct.com/dkschulman.html">DK Schulman Design</a>.</p> <p style="text-align: center;"><img alt="" src="https://s3.amazonaws.com/files.usmre.com/5739/blog/350px-Newpreston03.jpg" style="width: 350px; height: 233px;"></p> <p style="text-align: center;">The New Preston Village Center</p> <p style="text-align: center;"><img alt="" src="https://s3.amazonaws.com/files.usmre.com/5739/blog/rMsq9WLu7v_unZdlcsO97EglHgROSrhnaEu5BVm5crE%2CZfoq1FpaX1heHi13wglXEle-JeqZahTAFjeTKTqQrXA.jpg" style="width: 524px; height: 350px;"></p> <p>This exquiste antique home in New Preston was once a Quaker meeting house and retains many original details.
