Few of Maine's early schoolhouses still in existence hold so similarly to their original exterior design as the Alna School (also known as the Center School), located in Alna Center about a half-mile south of the Alna Meeting House (which is also listed in the National Register of Historic Places). It is believed to be the second-oldest schoolhouse still standing in Maine; the Old Schoolhouse in York predates it by 40 years. The Alna Schoolhouse is a one-story, nearly square building that maintained its educational function into the twentieth century.

The Holmes-Craft Homestead sits on a hill north of Jay proper at the fork of Route 17 and Old Jay Road.

The General Peleg Wadsworth House, located on a hill west of the Saco River, is a two-story dwelling with a side-gabled roof that sits on a granite foundation. Unlike many Federal-style buildings, the front facade is longer than typical.
