My latest video is about the west side of Prospect Street in Hartford (between Central Row and Atheneum Street) where a row of historic houses came to be replaced by the expansion of Travelers in the twentieth century. Some of these houses were the residences of prominent figures like the original publisher of the Hartford Courant, the founder of one of Hartford’s oldest law firms, the man who inspired a historic library and museum in a small Connecticut Town, and more! Also, the stable where George Washington kept his horse in 1780! The houses later became the homes of several important social clubs!
