Things To Do
Yale University
Founded in 1701, Yale University is home to several of attractions: you can roam the stunning grounds on your way between the Peabody Museum of Natural History, the Art Gallery, and the Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library. No time in New Haven would be complete without exploring the campus located on Chapel Street.
West Rock Ridge State Park
Rising up to 627ft above mean sea level, West Rock Ridge is one of the most prominent features in the New Haven region. West Rock affords you a spectacular view; it's estimated that one can see approximately 200 square miles from various locations on the ridge with excellent views of New Haven Harbor and Long Island Sound.
Hillhouse Avenue Historic District
Hillhouse Avenue is a street in New Haven, Connecticut, famous for its many nineteenth century mansions, including the president's house at Yale University. Both Charles Dickens and Mark Twain have described it as "the most beautiful street in America."
