People down voting don't understand. If someone lives above you you will hear every movement, and it's not their fault. And no they shouldn't choose to not walk at night. If this is a real issue for you don't live below people. Also if you live in a city expect it sound like a freight train outside your window day and night. If that's not your speed move somewhere quieter

Stella Blues is a decent dive bar. Sometimes has live music, small pool table in the back. Deck in the back if you smoke. Cover is usually 10 bucks. There are some interesting places up State St in the East Rock area. But I'd stay around Temple, College, Crown, Chapel, etc.

Get to te amo tequila for their happy hour to pregame and I highly recommend Geronimo and bar. Another great spot is baracuda (unmatched happy hour) but it’s a little far from crown

Well, in New Haven's case, inclusion of lower income units gets you tax breaks, and allows you to build more units and smaller units to make up for it. It also lets you out of minimum parking I think. It gives you some footprint room. We just have to wait and see if it works for New Haven, because not all of the city is zoned this way and if you want to get out of it, you can pay the city $160K or something like that, and if it "works" whether it will utlimately house people more affordably than the city has in the past
