  • 414 Whalley Ave New Haven, CT 06511 - Edgewood
    Given Whalley Ave's expansive width and high traffic volumes, and given business owners' desire to transform this space into an urban boulevard from a urban design standpoint, Whalley Avenue from the Fountain St intersection to Broadway would be the ideal location for a European/New York City-style physically separated bike lane. Ideally, this cycle track should spend most time on sidewalk level, as seen in the attached photo.
  • 890 Elm St New Haven, CT 06511, USA - Edgewood
    The white vacant house at 890 Elm St is being actively used for heavy drug use. Broken window in back provides easy access.
  • Norton Street New Haven, CT - Beaver Hills
    They drive in packs most of the time, usually 2 on motorbikes and one on an ATV. If the obnoxious vrooming doesn't bother you, think about the safety of you and your family - at the speeds they are going, they could easily crush someone. To death.
  • Graffiti Archived
    396 Norton Pkwy New Haven, CT 06511, USA - Beaver Hills
    Spray painted word on the brick pillar to Beaver Hills.

    I just witnessed a prostitute soliciting a man visiting a neighbor across the street. This aberrant behavior is not going to be tolerated here. From now on, I will walk outside and take pictures of these incredibly ignorant women. And ignorant is the correct word here, as when the gentleman refused her "advances," she erupted into some of the most disgusting trash talk I have ever heard come out of someone's mouth. I cannot even post it here, that is how sick this prostitute was with her words.

    Where is our new alderperson on this issue? I bet she considers crack whores in the hood a non-issue.

  • 214 Goffe Terrace New Haven, Connecticut - Beaver Hills

    This is the 4TH time this being reported. Are the cars even too buried to red tag ?? Not even a ticket yet since January.

    Abandon vehicles and irresponsible car owners are what's contributing to this mess- we can gain 2 feet of desperately needed road width- it's the even side of the street, but please.

    Do they know someone I wished I knew??

  • Traffic/Road Safety Acknowledged
    432 Edgewood Ave New Haven, CT 06511, USA - Edgewood

    This intersection has seen *three* crashes in just over a week: 7/28, 8/5, & just now 8/8. These are just the ones I've been home to witness the aftermath. At least one was very severe involving a motorcycle & car, & I don't know if the motorcyclist survived. In my eight years of living here, crashes at this intersection are commonplace. No hyperbole-- crashes here happen with scary frequency.

    It is clear, but I'd like the data to back up my assertion (who keeps crasj statistics?), that this traffic signal -- a blinking yellow on Edgewood and a blinking red on Edgewood-- is completely ineffective.

    The city can no longer wait. We need immediate attention & intervention at this intersection. How many more crashes & potential fatalities are necessary before action?

  • 79 Hubinger St New Haven, Connecticut - Edgewood
    See what WTNH news today (4-23-2015) has posted about what Bridgeport is doing about dirt bikes and ATVs running wild around their town.
    I was blocked last weekend by one of these young men from traveling down Hubinger to my house so that he could do a couple of donuts and wheelies. What a bully. These are bullies and don't care about their neighbors at all. The illegal off road vehicles use 79 Hubinger St for their base of operations. They use an app to know where the police are at anytime. The police are being out smarted here.
    Just wait until one of them is involved in a serious accident. Its not if it will happen, its when. What if one of them hits your car? Your insurance rate will go up to pay for the damage.
    They do not own the hood, we, the taxpayers do!!!
  • Ella T Grasso Blvd & Edgewood Ave New Haven, Connecticut - Edgewood
    This afternoon, a team of dirtbikes and quads were going down Edgewood Ave through the red lights, and on the wrong side of the road towards traffic.
  • 145 Blake St New Haven, CT, 06515, USA - Beaver Hills
    WHEN will the gas station on the corner of Osborn Avenue and Blake Street be taken care of? It is a complete disgrace to the neighborhood. If it isn't going to be thrown down or dealt with, at least clean it up. How many times must the neighbors complain about this? It is a total eyesore and continues to make the entire neighborhood look bad.
  • 506-530 Edgewood Avenue New Haven, Connecticut - Edgewood
    This is a popular meeting spot for gangs of ATV / Motorcross Hoodlums. They are very well organized, meet here and then take off, terrorizing our streets. Last evening, around 7:30PM there were about 15 of them that took off into traffic on Ella T. Grasso Blvd. WOULD THE POLICE AND THE CITY PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THESE PEOPLE OVERTAKING OUR CITY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?????????????????
  • 234 Edgewood Ave New Haven CT 06511 - Dwight
    A lime green dirt bike has resurfaced this afternoon following a period of relative peace in the neighborhood. At one point the rider (see attached photo) abandoned the street for the sidewalk without any apparent reduction in speed which I'd estimate at 40 mph. I hope the photo helps.
