The West Village Historic District of Princeton, Massachusetts, encompasses the historic heart of its West Village (also variously known as "Pratt's Corner" and "Lower Village"). The {{convert|465|acre|ha|adj=on}} district abuts the Princeton Center Historic District to the east, and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2009.[1][2]

Although the district is located just west of Princeton's town center, it was originally rural in character, and only began to develop a separate village center on the junction that is now Hubbardston Road, Allen Hill Road, and Radford Road. The oldest properties in the district are colonial-era Georgian homes, while there are Greek Revival properties built in the village during a development phase in the early 19th century. In the second half of the 19th century the area began to develop as a resort area, and boarding houses and resort hotels were built. Development in the area declined significantly after c. 1920.[2]
