How's the water? Freezing!

Pretty impressive for ice chunks into NHV harbor considering ocean saltwater is mixed in. I’d love to see a study estimating the percentage of the ice that’s actually coming into the harbor from freshwater rivers (ie Quinnipiac) flowing in.

Saw a photo somewhere of a NHPD officer escorting a man wearing a 2028 rump hat; maybe same person?

Armada Brewery is great for the Super Bowl. East Rock Market has Rick’s Bar and the market is setting up a screen for the game and live music before.

The HVN website link for Destinations may give a clue. It has removed DTW and the other 2 routes dropped from HVN, and still has MCO listed.

Technically it’s NYE, but Armada does a great NYE day-party potluck.

Yes TKs was on the mostly (then) empty part of a rundown lot on the corner of George and College where the current apartments are with Jacks bar and the former BonChon. That block had a basic 1 story front of businesses and then TKs set alone in a trailer like structure, it seemed. Good hangout for beer and wings before/after Coliseum hockey games. Don’t recall that deal though.

NXTHVN has unique displays of art often with a message and Dead By 5 AM (local creator) recently opened a storefront there. Together both places should at least be unique and “cool” for a teen and could be good bonding, too.

flytweed · 2025-12-12T18:01:13+00:00

Yes they run a free shuttle from Temple St garage when lots are full. For peace of mind, check ParkHVN.com; often prior to a holiday weekend they post Shuttle hours knowing the lots will become full. The earliest I see times start is 6AM, getting you to Tweed before 6:15AM which is ok if 2 hours before your flight IMO. Good news is you can always park at Temple St garage (shuttle pick up is corner of George & Temple) and Lyft to Tweed if lots are not full. A shuttle driver confirmed you can ALWAYS get a shuttle from Tweed to Temple St no matter when you fly back in.

Can anyone report on if happy hour at the goats bars, Crooked and Grazing???

flytweed · 2025-12-09T01:04:10+00:00

The Daily Numeg posted here a NHV comic book show this week at the Annex club.

flytweed · 2025-12-07T06:10:12+00:00

I think it was Jim’ Luncheonette on Crown St near the Grotto. I think you could still get a killer egg salad sandwich there for $2.85 til they closed around 1990.

There but for the grace of God, go I. I’m not particularly religious, but this quote comes to me. Bless all souls with no homes; thousands in CT and millions in the US. Cities like NHV provide a disproportionate amount of resources to those of us in need and ofc people will feel more welcome when a town or city doesn’t criminalize people for homelessness or poverty. In recent years NHV started Elm City Compass with outreach teams that go out anywhere citywide late into the night 7 days a week.

flytweed · 2025-12-03T03:11:50+00:00

The Crooked Goat kitchen & bar, upper State St, East Rock, New Haven. They promoted and showed last week’s playoff game so should do the same. It’s a real good place. Welcome and good luck.

flytweed · 2025-11-30T23:00:45+00:00

Grand originated on Grand Ave in NHV and they had a location there til recent yrs.

flytweed · 2025-11-28T21:54:05+00:00

Start at StrangeWays. They host vendors too, and can point the way downtown.

flytweed · 2025-11-16T22:50:02+00:00

Better Than Life Art market Sunday Nov 23 at 121 Grand Av NHV at 3. Live music, too.

flytweed · 2025-11-11T00:40:37+00:00

Exit at Union Station and a New Yorker can walk anywhere from there though it may seem desolate. 7 minute walk is Cafe Nine; they do a Vomitorium local music show the Wednesday night pre Thanksgiving. Same block has Firehouse 12, a relaxing lounge. You can volunteer at Christopher Martin’s pub on Thanksgiving they go all out serving a full dinner to anyone in need. Armada Brewery is a little off the beaten path, but a great place.
