Seaside Village Historic District is a primarily residential area in the South End of Bridgeport, Connecticut, bounded by Iranistan Avenue, South Avenue, Forest Court, and Alsace Street. Developed during World War I to relieve a housing shortage caused by workers hired for the city's munitions factories, it was an early government-funded project of its type. The densely built brick rowhouses, arranged in irregular combinations, were designed collaboratively by R. Clipston Sturgis, Skinner & Walker, and Arthur Shurtleff. The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.
