Architectural Overview
The Wawaset Park Deed and the designation of the neighborhood as a National Historical Place require that certain architectural guidelines be adhered to. To comply with this requirement, the Wawaset Maintenance Corporation has an Architectural Committee. ALL exterior alterations must be submitted to this committee for approval before work may commence. A copy of the application form can be found below.
