region
Who says you
can’t have it all?
Greater New Haven is truly an allinclusive destination. One of the most
unique aspects of our compact region
is the opportunity to have a robust city
experience, a relaxing shoreline retreat and
an invigorating country adventure without
spending hours in the car.
The Downtown Vibe
The region’s core city positively shines
as a center for dining, shopping and culture. With 130 restaurants within walking
distance of the New Haven Green, foodies
converge to savor flavors from around the
world. The restaurant scene is distinctive
for its eclectic mix of cuisines and limited
number of chain restaurants. The diversity
of our residents and visitors is highlighted
in our fare. One notable recent addition is
Tarry Lodge, which is owned and operated
by Mario Batali and Joe Bastianich.
Shopping in New Haven continues to
evolve with seven ribbon cuttings in December 2014 alone. The downtown stores
reflect the commitment to small business
and to providing unique merchandise
through the highest quality retailers. Old
favorites, such as Wave, Raggs, Trailblazer
and idiom, continue to offer refreshing
options from the big box stores. New endeavors, such as Kiko Milano, Emporium
DNA and the Extra Virgin Olive Oil Store,
deliver new and specialized alternatives.
Visit the city, the shoreline
and the country without
spending hours in the car.

If the Arts are your thing, you’ve
got plenty of choices. Both the Long
Wharf Theatre and the Shubert Theatre
celebrated impressive milestones in 2014
with their 50th and 100th anniversaries
respectively. The Yale University Art
Gallery continues to glow since its $135
million dollar makeover in 2012 and the
Knights of Columbus Museum wows
with its exquisite exhibition of sacred art
and artifacts. In Yale University’s ongoing commitment to preservation of its
extensive collection, both the Beinecke
Rare Book and Manuscript Library and
the Yale Center for British Art will undergo
renovations throughout 2015. The Yale
Center for British Art is scheduled to
reopen in February 2016 and the Beinecke
in September 2016.
A Shoreline Getaway
With a coastline that extends from Milford to Clinton along Long Island Sound,
complete with two waterfront State Parks
(Silver Sands and Hammonasset Beach),
surf and sand lovers will be in their glory.
Whether your inclination is to sail, kayak
or read a book with your toes in the sand,
there are plenty of beaches from which to
choose.
Our shoreline towns offer more than
just great access to Long Island Sound,
they pride themselves on their traditional
New England town centers with charming
boutiques and delightful restaurants.
Head North
The upper portion of our region tends
to be more rural with lovely vineyards and
wineries as well as Lyman Orchards, a
family owned and operated farm since
1741. Lyman Orchards is recognized as
the twelfth oldest family-owned business
in America.
If you are a fan of outdoor activities, you
are in luck. Climbing the peaks of Sleeping
Giant State Park or tubing at Powder
Ridge Mountain Park and Resort are just a
taste of all the adventures waiting for you.

Yale University
We’re old
and proud of it
For a region of less than
600,000 people, our global
impact is indisputable.
With more than 375 years under our
belt, we’ve been around the block…
more than once. From our Puritanical
founding, through the Industrial Revolution, multiple waves of immigrants and
the social changes of the 1960’s, we have
been influenced and transformed, without
losing our identity.
As the home of Yale University,
Greater New Haven plays a pivotal role
around the world. The region has been
home to future Presidents, Supreme Court
Justices, Nobel Prize winners, journalism
trailblazers and artistic icons. It is critical
to remember that just as we have been
shaped by them, they have also been
shaped by us. We may be a region of
less than 600,000 people, but our global
impact is indisputable.
To learn more about our past, the New
Haven Museum provides a comprehensive overview of the history of the City of
New Haven, while the historical societies
of the suburban towns weave their own
tales. The Yale University Campus Tour is a
Nathan Hale
Michael Marsland/Yale University
must-do for history buffs. As the stories of
New Haven and Yale are so interconnected, the tour serves as both a welcome to
Yale University and the City of New Haven.

Fresh, just the way
you like it
The growing season
brings opportunities for
restaurants to update
their menus with
fresh-from-the-farm
appetizers, entrées,
side dishes and desserts.
Many of our restaurants have enthusiastically embraced the produce of our
local farmers. You’ll see that the menus
vary more often than the seasons as our
imaginative chefs integrate the fresh ingredients into both new and traditional recipes. The growing season brings opportunities for the restaurants to change up their
customary menus with fresh from the farm
appetizers, entrées, side dishes and desserts. 2013 may have been the pinnacle
of the fresh produce revolution, when chef
Bun Lai of Miya’s Sushi introduced 17-year
cicadas to the menu.
For slightly more mainstream fresh
produce menus, visit 116 Crown, Basta
Trattoria, Caseus, Heirloom at The Study,
Home, Zinc and The Wharf at the Madison
Beach Hotel for a homegrown twist on
their delicious offerings.
While we love our local farmers, we also
adore the flavors from around the world.
Goodfellas' Tall Stack
The region offers delectable cuisine from
Asia, Austria, Japan, Cuba, Malaysia and
beyond. And last, but certainly not least, is
the legendary thin-crust, New Haven-style
pizza. While this used to refer solely to
Pepe’s and Sally’s, there are countless
new contenders for the title of most
delicious pizza. Try any pizza parlor in the
region and you are virtually guaranteed a
delicious pizza pie.

Lisman Landing
J.J. Richards
We take play
very seriously.
While we may be best known for our
culture and dining, our outdoor attractions are equally outstanding. In April,
everyone heads outside to enjoy the first
hint of spring and the annual festivals
celebrating the new season. The Daffodil Festival in Hubbard Park in Meriden
radiates a golden glow with its 600,001
blooms, while the Japanese cherry blossoms along Wooster Street are fleeting,
but spectacular. Hiking and biking rev
up after their winter hiatus and the town
centers hum with activity.
Summer may kick off on Memorial Day,
but the definitive arrival of the season for
the region is the International Festival of
Arts & Ideas. This two-week event marks
the beginning of the region’s fair and
festival happenings. From arts and crafts
to corn and potatoes, there is something
for everyone. Our sparkling beaches also
beckon, including two beachfront state
parks, Hammonasset Beach (Madison)
and Silver Sands (Milford). The boardwalk
in West Haven draws residents and visitors
alike for an evening stroll.
As summer departs, autumn brings
new delights, including the North Haven
and Durham agricultural fairs. As in most
New England towns, fall is highlighted
by nature’s display of dazzling foliage.
Typically, peak viewing is enjoyed from
mid-October through mid-November
depending on fickle Mother Nature. While
you are here checking out the leaves, it is
the perfect time to pick your own apples
and pumpkins at one of our many farms.
The holidays arrive with traditional tree
lightings and festive musical and theatrical
performances. Shoppers will delight at the
wide assortment of unexpected offerings
from our unique boutiques and exciting
pop-up shops.
You can welcome the New Year with
the annual hike at Sleeping Giant State
Park or the Polar Plunge at Lighthouse
Point Park as each is breathtaking in its
own way. Enjoy the exhilaration while ski-
ing, tubing and snowboarding at Powder
Ridge Mountain and Resort. Soon, the
eagles will return to the Connecticut River
and the seals to the Thimble Islands (in
March) and spring will make its glorious
return.

International Festival
of Arts & Ideas
Celebrates 20 Years
Each year in June, the International Festival of Arts & Ideas takes over the open
spaces, theaters, and historic town Green
in New Haven with dozens of performances, talks, activities, and more. The twoweek festival reaches its 20th annual event
in 2015, and over the years has brought
internationally renowned artists to the
city including Yo-Yo Ma, Dianne Reeves,
and Angélique Kidjo—more than 80% of
performances and events are completely
free to the public.
“A festival like this is really unique in
the United States,” said the Festival’s
Executive Director, Mary Lou Aleskie. “It’s
much more common in Europe, where for
several weeks an entire city like Edinburgh,
Salzburg, or Avignon turns its attention
to culture, performance, and big, festive
gatherings. That was the dream when our
58
www.visitNewHaven.com www.newhavenarts.org
founders began the Festival in 1996, and
we have managed to realize that in many
ways that are uniquely New Haven. This is
a great city, and it comes even more alive
during the 15 days of the festival.”
Visitors can find an entire range of experiences at Arts & Ideas, whether visiting
for one day or several: Start the day with a
walking tour of a historic New Haven site
or a gallery exhibition; then, see a performance from a major international theater
or dance artist. A talk from one of today’s
foremost thinkers rounds out the afternoon, then, the day finishes with a headline
concert on the New Haven Green, all while
enjoying a beautiful New England summer
evening.
Festival 20 happens June 12 to 27,
2015, and brings several big attractions
to New Haven. Highlights include: the
acclaimed Mark Morris Dance Group with
its staging of the Handel opera Acis and
Galatea, in an East Coast-exclusive appearance this year; popular performance
artist Taylor Mac will bring a world premiere
theater piece to the Festival; and jazz
saxophonist Rudresh Mahanthappa collaborates with Ragamala Dance Company
for an evening that combines traditional
Indian dance forms with new jazz sounds.
Headlining the free concert series on
the New Haven Green are Darlene Love,
Lucinda Williams, Angélique Kidjo, and
Kurt Elling with the New Haven Symphony
Orchestra. Guests on the Festival’s Ideas
series of free talks and conversations
include New Yorker cartoonist Roz Chast,
poet Claudia Rankine, journalist Jelani
Cobb, and topics ranging from waterways
and the environment to the place to changing views on surveillance and policing in
modern society. (Festival 2016 happens
June 11 to 25.)

History Beneath
our Feet
Smart tour planners call Greater New
Haven an undiscovered gem. With over
375 years of history beneath our feet
and the international appeal of Yale
University, we belong on any thinking
tour group’s itinerary.
History here is alive and out and about.
New Haven is a city meant for walking
tours, ranging from a short stroll on the
town green to a long afternoon’s worth of
ambling through early American history.
The compact city center makes the logistics simple. Park the tour bus and walk:
almost everything you need is within a
few strides.
Student and educational tours will find
New Haven a natural fit: the gorgeous
stone structures and hallowed libraries of
Yale University are nothing if not an advertisement for lifelong learning.
Michael Marsland/Yale University
A tour of Yale, guaranteed to leave a
lasting impression, is a must for any
age group. Younger visitors looking for
something more playful will delight in
attractions like the Peabody Museum,
with its massive dinosaur skeletons; older
groups should consider the charming town
greens of shoreline villages, perfect spots
for a stroll, some shopping, and lunch. For
shopping alone, stop by regional highlights
like Clinton Crossing Premium Outlets and
IKEA New Haven.
New Haven is also an ideal destination for arts groups: visitors can see a
Van Gogh at Yale University Art Gallery or
focus on architecture, from Gothic courtyards to seminal modernist landmarks.
Our dense, diverse restaurant scene
has already inspired a series of food tours;
organize your own itinerary or sign up for
the popular downtown culinary tour.

A Day at the Beach
Life along the shore is delightful and not
just during the summer. Swimming, sunning, birding, biking, jogging and fishing
are just some of the appeal of coastal
Connecticut. For a coastal tour of the
region, you’ll want to start at Silver Sands
Beach State Park. Though Charles Island
is now home to a bird sanctuary, rumor
has it that Captain Kidd used it as a hiding
place for his treasure back in 1699. As you
mosey along the Milford shoreline, you’ll
pass Walnut Beach, the Downtown Milford
Green/Milford Harbor, Gulf Beach, Pond
Point and Anchor Beach. At Oyster River
you will cross over to West Haven with its
spectacular beaches.
On West Haven’s Bradley Point, Old
Glory sways proudly in the breeze over the
Veterans Walk of Honor which includes
memorials for both the Korean and
Vietnam Wars. The Point also marks the
start of a 1.7 mile beachfront path. It is
an ideal destination for avid walkers and
runners.
Lighthouse Point Park is the shining
jewel of the New Haven Department of
Parks, Recreation and Trees in the Morris
Cove section of New Haven. Along the
way, you can explore Ft. Nathan Hale and
Black Rock Fort, site of a British invasion
on July 5, 1779. There are two “must see”
attractions on the beachfront property.
The first, Five Mile Point Lighthouse, is
impossible to miss. This imposing 70 foot
lighthouse is constructed from sandstone
quarried from East Haven with a solid
brick interior. Its spiral granite staircase
leads up to the lantern loft where the
lighthouse lens was mounted. The current
tower was built in 1845 replacing the
original 1805 lighthouse.
The second gem on this leg of your
journey is the fully restored Lighthouse
Point Carousel. Built in 1916, the carousel
is one of the few carousels from the era
that is still operational. It has 69 horses,
one camel and two dragon chariots. The
outer rim of the carousel contains original
oil paintings of local scenes of New Haven
as well as various boats, trains, mermaids
and lighthouses. Both the lighthouse and
carousel are listed on the National Registry
of Historic Places.
Undoubtedly the Thimble Islands, off
the coast of Branford, are the stars of this
quaint seaside village. Board the Volsunga
IV or the Sea Mist for 45 minute narrated
tours of the islands. Enjoy the views of the
stunning vacation homes or travel back
in time while you listen to pirate stories.
For a more hands-on experience, rent a
kayak from Thimble Island Coastal Kayak
(reservations required).
For beach lovers, Madison offers one
of the best Connecticut State Parks.
Hammonasset Beach State Park, the
state’s largest shoreline park, offers over 2
miles of beach to enjoy swimming, strolling along the boardwalk, or just relaxing
in the sun and surf. If you just can’t get
enough of Hammonasset Beach, the park
is home to over 550 grassy campsites
perfect for the nature enthusiast. Here
visitors can enjoy wetlands and woodlands perfect for walking, biking, kayaking,
fishing, swimming, bird watching, kite
flying, and picnicking.

New England is world-renowned for its
spectacular fall foliage season and Greater
New Haven proudly displays its autumn
colors. Leaf peeping is an annual tradition
that is not to be missed.
Projected Dates for peak foliage are,
pending whatever surprises Mother Nature
has in store for us, mid-October through
mid-November. We recommend you
check with the Connecticut Department
of Environmental Protection prior to your
visit, ct.gov/deep.
