Changes on a block of Main Street, Hartford

YouTube player

My latest YouTube video reveals the forgotten history of the block of Main Street (west side, between Park Street and Buckingham Street). I also have a new Substack piece that gives more details about a story I mention in the video (it involves an antique fire bucket!).

Buy my books: “A Guide to Historic Hartford, Connecticut” and “Vanished Downtown Hartford.” As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.
