Walk New Haven

WALK NEW HAVEN: Cultural Heritage Tours is a multi-media project created by the Ethnic Heritage Center (EHC). We have published four books on the history of New Haven — our latest book on the neighborhood surrounding “Inner” Grand Avenue (between State and East Street), representing three years of research and writing, was published in 2023.

Our new tour book has just been released and is available for purchase on Amazon.

Previous tour books are also available on Amazon.

Although some of the buildings described are no longer standing, their stories remain. This self-guided walking/biking/driving tour tells the stories of the experiences, contributions and hardships faced in New Haven by five of the cultural and ethnic groups that have enriched our community.

A major goal of the EHC is to stimulate an interest among the many additional cultural groups in New Haven to form historical societies to preserve and share their histories. This project is the start of that process. We plan to include sites important to additional cultural groups in our community in the future.
