    Hi Lee,

    I have long been interested in doing some sort of program in Chatham Square, but with our stretched resources it just hasn't happened. Our 50th Anniversary seems to have brought a renewed sense of purpose and energy and I am very hopeful that this will carry us forward in the coming years.

    Our calendar is pretty full this year, but I would like to talk to you more about planning something for next year. I think a tour is certainly possible -- either as part of Arts & Ideas, as a stand-alone Trust tour, or as something offered in conjunction with an event in CS.

    I'll stay in touch!

    All the best,

    Anita

    Thanks Lee!

    The closing is now scheduled for next Wednesday. It will take a month or more to get the place ready for us to move in (no appliances, stolen copper pipes, etc.). But we are very happy to be joining the Chatham Square neighborhood. I was very impressed with the meeting yesterday evening.
  • Alaina Driscoll

    Hey Lee-- well, I work right down the block from you at Phoenix Press, where the wind turbine is always spinning!  :)  And I'm interested in learning more about active communities such as yours so that I might bring it back to my 'hood in East Haven!

    Hi Lee, you are very kind to welcome me aboard.  Here is a birthday poem for P:

    Today is a birthday, I wonder for whom...

    It's somebody sitting here right in this room!

    So look all around you for somebody who...

    Is laughing and smiling

    My goodness--it's you!!!

    Loved see Erna Caron's video about living in the city.  She was a good friend of my mom's. I only wish we could record all the elderly and their memories for the next generations to see & hear.

    Thank you Lee. I am moving to the neighborhood later this month and wanted a head start on getting acquainted with new neighbors and getting involved in the community!  17 years working in tourism, I would love to help make New Haven, and specifically Chatham Square a sought after "destination". I hope to see you at 200 Orange St on November 7th for the "Main Street" approach meeting.

    Thank you Lee, I live in the Oyster Cove Condominiums on Front Street and I’m glad that I found this site. I’ve lived here for several years and was an executive with Sikorsky Aircraft for 20+ years before retiring at the end of 2018. I’m interested in getting more involved in the community through volunteer work. I look forward to meeting you. Regards, Derek Jones
