The history of New Haven entrepreneurship past and present. The fortunes of a neighborhood rising and falling, and rising again. The legacies of environmental depredation, and the work to create healthier, more sustainable places.
All these themes were touched upon in the latest walk from the New Haven Bioregional Group, in which Aaron Goode of Friends of the Farmington Canal Greenway led a group of about 30 walkers through the New Haven section of the urban trail that today connects almost seamlessly to Northampton, Mass.
New Haven police Wednesday afternoon released video footage of the East Rock crash Sunday involving a cop cruiser and an ATV, sending the ATV rider to the hospital.
Behavior change for drivers, not pocket change for city coffers, drove a proposal to install red-light and speed cameras toward another recommended approval.
As alders consider whether to legalize red light and speeding cameras in New Haven, Mayor Justin Elicker has proposed adding four new city employees to install and manage 20 such cameras in the next fiscal year.
Upper Orange Street’s parking spots will all stay put. The city will build no new dedicated bike lanes.
But! The city will “slow” the street and make room for cars and cyclists alike by narrowing the road, trimming the speed limit, improving signage and sightlines, coloring the street, and putting in a median.
Such are the details the Elicker administration has put together after years of debate over a new design for a nine-block run of Orange Street between Humphrey and Cold Spring Streets.

Agitating the atmosphere: That’s what Doreen Abubakar called the opening of the Newhallville Bike Box, a new free bike repair station on Shelton Avenue and Hazel Street.
“We live in a place where there is no library, no medical institution, and no community space where people can gather,” Abubakar, founder of the Community Placemaking Engagement Network, told the spirited group of 30 at a festive, if wind-buffeted, ribbon-cutting ceremony.
Drivers hell-bent on whipping past the often-ignored red light at Park and South Frontage have only a few more months to avoid an automatic ticket, if a plan announced Monday goes through to put a red light camera there.

Northampton will soon be a hundred-mile hop, skip or jump away from Hammonasset State Park — once New Haven establishes itself as the link between the Farmington Canal Trail and Shoreline Greenway.
The work of excavators mixed with officials’ visions of bustling downtown blocks Wednesday as New Haven started rebuilding a new stretch of State Street — or rebuilding a version of the old one.

“It’s been a journey getting here,” Uber driver Jesenia Rodriguez said as she parked her boyfriend’s stoplight red Toyota across from the state Capitol building.
She was running late. First she had to drop her grandkids off at Jepson School. Then she missed three exits on her way into Hartford while fielding phone calls from fellow rideshare and delivery drivers.
But now she had arrived, with a message to deliver.
New Haveners will be able to fly directly to Atlanta from Tweed New Haven Airport four times a week beginning May 2, as part of the of the latest expansion of flights.
A Union Station rezoning proposal got a thumbs down — for now — from City Plan commissioners, amid concerns that it might not make sense to build so many new apartments next door to an active railyard.
Federal regulators have ruled that Tweed New Haven Airport may move forward with plans to extend its runway and construct a larger terminal, which is a project the airport is undertaking with the goal of increasing airplane traffic.
