My wife and I usually go for quick getaways to trendy/hipster Hudson Valley towns, but this year we were looking for a change. We wanted museums, history, food, cocktails, walkability…so we did Hartford. Quick appreciation 🧵 (that won’t be a surprise to Hartford residents!).

Tonight's fireworks show in Bushnell Park was spectacular! #HartfordHasIt
Important thread... @ParkvilleMarket, please take note!

Last time I visited Hartford’s Parkville neighborhood from New Haven it was via transit/on foot. The Market entrance was a dangerous-by-design driveway with no pedestrian infrastructure—the sidewalk entrance was barred shut. Where’s the Hartford Courant article about that?
Disappointing. The @hartfordcourant is missing the forest for the trees here. Parking wouldn't be an issue if Parkville Market and the surrounding area were even remotely walkable. There are *plenty* of parking spaces in Parkville.

Saw a tweet that got me thinking... if the Coyotes were to move to Hartford would you abandon your fandom of another regional team and become a Hartford fan? I don't root for any of the local hockey teams, so can't really say, but curious if you would.
The smell of smoke is strong in the Hartford area 🔥
Was a great scene … now everyone go support our great downtown restaurants and businesses!

This picture doesn’t capture it but tonight I caught the most stunning view of Hartford on approach to BDL in my life.

@TheHartfordGuy Thanks for all the great pics!
@TheHartfordGuy @KyleConstable We have been so lucky to have you as part of our community for the last 7 years, Kyle — wish you all the luck in whatever comes next!
@TheHartfordGuy We just moved to Pittsburgh after 12 years in Hartford. 😢 Good luck in your next city.
When so many people look down on Hartford, it's nice to see when someone highlights everything that's good about the city. Thank you for all you have done over the last seven years @TheHartfordGuy. x.com/thehartfordguy…
On this day seven years ago, I moved to Hartford. If you told me then that I'd spend more years living in Hartford than anywhere else in my life, I would not have believed you. But seven *incredible* years later, here we are. That's what makes this next update bittersweet...
@TheHartfordGuy @KyleConstable Lol, that’s a pretty good origin story for us
@TheHartfordGuy @KyleConstable This makes me sad. You were always a big supporter of the city, and its news publications. But you were not afraid to point out what steps need to be taken to improve.
@TheHartfordGuy @KyleConstable Sad to hear! Thanks for all the incredible info and pictures over the years!

Fantastic thread about how a parking first strategy to economic development is exactly the wrong way to approach things Anecdotally, I only ever go to @ParkvilleMarket when I have suburban relations come into Hartford, never on my own for ALL the reasons @StasiaBrew discusses
Last time I visited Hartford’s Parkville neighborhood from New Haven it was via transit/on foot. The Market entrance was a dangerous-by-design driveway with no pedestrian infrastructure—the sidewalk entrance was barred shut. Where’s the Hartford Courant article about that?
I guess I would just like an approach to development on the part of city leaders that did not ask, "how do we get outsiders to spend money here?" but instead, "how do we make it so that our people have money to spend here?"
Courant really doubling down on the bs that parking is needed to thrive. Especially atrocious when talking about a neighborhood where BRT is less than a 5-minute walk, in addition to regular buses that operate every day
What’s happening in Parkville is super exciting, but this hyperfocus on parking is disappointing (but not surprising). This neighborhood has world-class bus rapid transit service (@CTfastrak) and other @CTTRANSIT routes along Park St. Transit can be part of the solution here.
Growing pains with a Hartford arts and innovation district. Without parking, ‘we’re dead in the water’ trib.al/ndK2HS3
