New Haven

Visited yale University and drank at a bar in front of the university that is frequented by college students.

I personally dig New Haven. It’s extremely pedestrian-friendly.

in a motel in New Haven for two nights. When I got there, it was obvious that there were several families living in the motel. It was a class-A dump. The downtown was a dump. The suburbs were bland. And the only possible saving grace, Yale University, was underwhelming to say the least. Unless you can get into Yale, don’t go…

Bring your apitiate for food and art

Maybe it’s because I was born and raised here, but it is definitely not the place for me. It can be fun if you don’t end up passing through downtown everyday of your life. It would be a nice place to visit only if you live in Connecticut and are looking for a daytrip or if you live in one of the neighboring states. Otherwise, do not waste your time and money on New Haven, CT!

I have been to Yale University many times. My father was pushing me to go there and study medicine against my interest since I was about eight years old. Twelve years later, he’s still pushing for it. Yale has a nice library….your jaw would drop if you are an avid reader like myself. Other than that it’s just another ivy league college with a bunch of prep school kids running around.

The green, which rests in the very center of downtown…is just that…a green. It’s a green like every other city has. It’s kind of big and a lot of homeless people sleep there and feed pigeons. It’s almost exactly like Denver’s green…though less active.

Union Station is only worth visiting if you’re hopping a train or a greyhound. East Rock is boring…there’s not much there. It is just a large residental area with a few schools. Mamoun’s Falafel made Will (an old friend of mine) and I sick…and I don’t really wish to talk about that experience. SCSU is your standard state college. I know lot of people who I grew up with and/or went to high school with attend SCSU. They say it’s like this big reunion (an unwelcome reunion for several).
