The Naugatuck Train Station, designed by renowned architect Henry Bacon and completed in 1910, is a striking example of Spanish Colonial Revival architecture. Its defining features include stucco walls, brownstone and brick quoining, and a polychrome terra-cotta clock face above the entrance. Originally serving the New York, New Haven, and Hartford Railroad, the station's open, round-arched passageways were later enclosed. Adjacent to the station, Metro-North’s Waterbury Branch continues to provide commuter services, preserving the station's transportation legacy.

Commissioned by local philanthropist John Howard Whittemore, the train station reflects his commitment to the "City Beautiful" movement, combining functionality with architectural elegance.

In the mid-1960s, the Naugatuck Daily News began operating from the station, utilizing the space until the mid-1990s. In 2002, the Naugatuck Historical Society transformed the building into a museum dedicated to preserving and sharing the town’s history. The society remained in the station until 2015. Following extensive renovations, the building reopened in 2016 as The Station Restaurant.

Designated as part of the Naugatuck Center Historic District on July 30, 1999.
