Listing on the National Register draws attention to the historical significance of the building, object, district or road. While being on the list affords protection against certain federal interference, it does not by itself prohibit alterations or demolitions. In Greenwich there are 21 properties listed including houses, a church, bridges, mills, municipal buildings, a lighthouse, railroad stations and a parkway. In addition to individual properties, there are six historic districts. and each contains many properties. These properties are deemed worthy of preservation because of "a quality of significance in American history, architecture, archaeology, engineering and culture...in districts, sites, buildings, structures and objects that possess location, design, setting, materials, workmanship, feeling and association...with events that contributed to broad patterns of our history, with lives of significant individuals, with distinctive styles of architecture, or with information important to history or prehistory."
