Covered Bridges of Danbury Condos

August 15, 2022 by Steve Leave a Comment

Covered Bridges of Danbury Condos... County Crown Court & Covered Bridge Condo Bridges, Danbury If you can believe it - and I can't - there are two different condominium complexes in Danbury with covered bridges. They are both off of Route 37, both cross Padanaram Brook and are only about half a mile from each … [Read more...]

Worthington Pond Farm Covered Bridge

June 23, 2022 by Steve 1 Comment

A Totally Worthington Bridge Worthington Pond Farm Covered Bridge, Somers December 2016 A few years before I first visited this rather large and pretty covered bridge, Worthington Farm was... a turkey farm. But at some point in the 21st century, real estate guy Dan Roulier bought and developed the property into a … [Read more...]

Milford Memorial Bridge & Tower

June 10, 2022 by Steve 1 Comment

Milford Takes Nothing for Granite Milford Memorial Bridge & Tower, Milford July 2021 You've gotta love Milford. In 1888 the town said, "Hey, let's build a bridge over the Wepawaug River to commemorate... literally every possible person and thing we can." "You mean, like, one bridge to take care of all the town … [Read more...]

Fictus Dolium Nullus Hobart Victory Welton Carriage Shed, Waterbury If you're the type of person that cares about the brilliant hierarchical structuring of CTMQ, you'll notice that this page falls into the "Roads and Tunnels" section of the "Towers, Bridges, Forts, Tunnels, Roads, Canals, Dams, Fishways, Airports, … [Read more...]

StanChem Fishway

March 24, 2022 by Steve Leave a Comment

Fishway Stan StanChem Fishway, Berlin Why did I ever begin documenting fishways and fish ladders and lifts? I honestly don't remember. In my defense, a couple of them here and there act as sort of outdoor museums and have displays and open houses and stuff. But that doesn't explain why I went beyond them to … [Read more...]

Winter Storm Prep Central Bread and Milk Road & Street, Coventry & Vernon Please be sure to read the comment below that explains the names way better than I do. We all love dumb street names.

North Meadow Road

January 26, 2022 by Steve Leave a Comment

It Starts and Ends with Guns North Meadow Road, Windsor I'll admit it; I'm a bit confused about this page. This short half-paved road in Windsor is supposed to be important. I was led to believe it is important - so much so that I traveled the full length of it to take pictures to complement a robust page about the … [Read more...]

Smith-Hubbell Wildlife Refuge and Bird Sanctuary

January 4, 2022 by Steve Leave a Comment

Purple Martins Majesty Smith-Hubbell Wildlife Refuge and Bird Sanctuary and Tower, Milford August 2021 As most readers know, every hike (and "hike") I feature on CTMQ isn't great. Sometimes my hiking partner is a drag, sometimes the weather is a bummer, and sometimes the hike itself isn't impressive. … [Read more...]

Pumpkin Delight Road & School

November 26, 2021 by Steve Leave a Comment

Pump(kin) Up The Jam! Pumpkin Delight Road & School, Milford Please be assured that I've scoured the internet for a whole two minutes trying to find out why this road is called Pumpkin Delight Road. I must assume the road was named before the school and that the school was named because of the road it's near. … [Read more...]

CT Roadside Sign Gallery

October 22, 2021 by Steve Leave a Comment

Signs, Signs, Everywhere is signs Connecticut Roadside Sign Gallery I'm not sure how far I'll take this page, especially seeing as I didn't begin it until late 2021. That's 15 years of passing by dopey signs and not thinking to capture them for posterity. Note: I certainly have been capturing all the ET Progressive … [Read more...]
