If you had kept walking up Elm Street past the Shops, you would have arrived at the historic New Haven Green, with easy access to Yale's Old Campus and Cross Campus, both of which are accessible by the public. You also could have seen quite a bit more little nooks and crannies of Yale's campus. It's not a gated compound, it's an urban campus that's pretty well integrated into the surrounding city center.

Was initially interested in his candidacy, but THIS is where he started to lose my interest. Obviously, you need to be able to support your family but how out of touch to do you have to be to state that as a reason to become mayor....for the salary??!!

He was asked during an appearance Thursday on WNHH FM’s ​“Dateline New Haven” program why he is interested in running for the position — rather than starting out running for, say, alder.

He responded that leaving McKinsey will leave him without a full-time salary.

“For me to give up my job that is supporting my family, I need to be able to at least replace it with a salary,” he said.

It means some MAGA asshole lives there, and believes that this is an appropriate way for grown adults to behave. And I am guessing that they are mad at the person in the photo for some perceived slight to their manhood.

I have a free pair in Westville for you or anyone who reads this! I’m a women’s size 9/9.5 and they’re big on me so I’m going to guess it’d fit a size 10 better.

I'm from Branford and have commuted to west haven to work for 13 years... It's not terrible. I now live in Wallingford and it's also not bad. I avoid going to Hamden, i call it the hole in the donut. There's no good way to get there lol. Branford, east haven, new Haven, north Haven, orange, Milford are all better options.

They also had movies and mimosas on Saturday and Sunday mornings. I never went to those, but I did go to insomnia theater a few times. I remember seeing Jaws there. I think it was the 2010s. I don't remember the theater being full so I'm not sure they'd bring it back but I'd go if they did.

Hi! I have a pair of women’s size 10 in very good condition as well as knee/elbow/wrist pads. Are you interested? I’ll sell for a reasonable low price.
