the United States is finally realizing that outdoor street stuff is awesome and leads to a better city vibe as opposed to the pure insanity of CT streets. i love the sprawling seating, and despite the perspective of less east parking, i really really hope the fines disappear.

Here is a map of current apartment listings. On the 'options' menu, select 'noise'. And it will show you a heatmap of the loudest parts of the city.

Westville area is quieter and has cute shops and cafes!

Is there a reason you want to stay in New Haven? As you say, outside the city would be quieter.

East Rock and Westville are very quiet. It seems like Morris Cove would be as well, and parts of Beaver Hills. Unfortunately, I think a lot of times “quiet” is a matter of perception and goes hand in hand with “expensive.”

Is Tom Goldenberg the one who swooped in here after years working in NYC consulting firms known for being egregiously unscrupulous in their practices and the organizations they represent?

Watch the video on the QR code. It’s petty stupid shit

It has been driving me crazy! I needed to know.

I have always wondered about that!

I am interested. Good initiative

And then we can snap it off and push it into the ocean

When shit hits the fan we know to raid his place and take his guns lol

lol I live on that rd I will have to keep an eye out

I’m glad when these places understand that I’m there for the beer and maybe to play Pacman for 30 seconds before losing, haha. I’ll definitely try it out, though, thanks!!

With a “FUCK BIDEN” flag in the front yard. Save the children!

He held one in westville-good stuff. He’s the top contender to dethrone Elicker (who I hear eats Dominos pizza).

I could go into more details on it all but the short is that for the half block in question the traffic study has been done for “permanent” closure (like Broadway in the city) and those issues are satisfactorily addressed. For example, there are no doors beyond the range of to code fire truck access from the ends of the closure.

A hybrid approach is still much cooler than nothing and I’m so happy to have it, but going full closure stops it from being a street in need of any services like plowing so a lot of the issues stop being a thing when it’s treated as a plaza.

I completely agree with your sentiment. Making streets more friendly to pedestrians does wonders to foster community and create a livable city.

However, unless I'm overlooking something important, even pedestrian streets need to plowed. Often times these streets have an early-hours window for deliveries. More importantly, there may issues related to safety. Emergency vehicles need access in case of fires and other unforeseen situations. I am not an expert in fire codes, but this may have something to do with the need to clear the snow from the road.

How dare you tell kids that BLM? …oh but calling a local public servant a cuck with no context on a huge sign on a public road is LOL.

Holy crap. What's with the dude rubbing himself nonstop? Literally every part of his body, face, arms. Annoying af.

there are so many to choose from, and they all range in difficulty level! believe me, there aren't many games there that are very complicated. also the food is pretty decent there and they have a great selection of craft beers :)

I'm also new to the area and would love a book club!
