Armada Brewing is heavy on promoting board /table top games. During winter was closed on Tuesdays but now back open on Tuesdays.

I’ve lived in Smoothie and 38 crown in the past. Smoothie overlooking Olive was probably quieter. What I really hated about 38 crown was that the traffic light to cross Orange is extremely long and motorcycles will sit at the light and rev their engines while they wait. I’ve had to pause movies to wait for them to get at least a block away and they woke me up from a dead sleep all summer long.

Take a look at 65 Dwight Street which is managed by Chelsea Company
I lived at this property and their 80 Howe property in law school and they’re a solid/responsive landlord.
Apart from being more than a little ugly on the outside, 65 Dwight might check some good boxes for you. It is close to the hospital and has its own off-street parking spaces or individual garage spaces.
Really the only issue I ever dealt with was some of the noise pollution from ambulances en route to the hospital, but it was not particularly disruptive.
Edit: their George St property may be a little nicer (don’t have personal experience with it) and is in the same neighborhood.
As to your original question, High Street is possibly one of the loudest areas of downtown due to the frat house.

I lived in 380 crown it’s a fairly quiet part of downtown closer to state st and I never heard shit. Also my unit was semi underground bad lighting but no noise good for night shift. Wooster square is also fine , or the smoothie building 10 min walk.

I used to work on high street. Saturdays during the academic term were my personal hell. I can’t imagine living there

I would look at Temple Sq Apartments - diff spot in downtown but 10/10 noise insulation for downtown & lots of ppl that work at the hospital live there. Otherwise, new 18 High apartments probably have good insulation? I would say New Haven Towers is also probably fine at night - it's right next to High St, I would just stay in their building on York St (not the Madison one or the others on the opposite side of York). College & Crown building probably also has good insulation - maybe Taft Apartments?
Cambridge Oxford itself has ~ okay ~ noise insulation depending on which apartment you're in/if your bedroom faces the street or not (I used to live in an apartment there & my room was furthest from the street and I couldn't really hear the frat houses)
All that said, unfortunately it seems like the only good noise insulated apartments in downtown are much more expensive lol

I looked at an apartment on High St and was told that it gets super loud in the summers because of its proximity to Bar and Crown St. It’s probably the busiest nightlife street in New Haven, especially in the summer. The apartment I looked at faced over the parking lot/street towards Bar and the tenant said it did get loud at night with people yelling, walking through the area, and the bar itself. I didn’t know there was a frat house over there too but I would probably check out a different area

I actually live on Howe St right now. I moved here in January for a sublet to get a feel for New Haven before committing to a full lease. Though I haven’t experienced much trouble like statebird_ mentioned I agree that this street is really crummy: litter everywhere, lots of panhandlers hovering asking for money, can get pretty loud on the weekends but nothing extreme level for me other than the typically drunk college kids and car honking
Really wanted to make Dwight work because it’s pretty close to the hospital too but the neighborhood and quality of life just isn’t good at all
EDIT: noisy right now on Howe st sounds like a protest going on outside.

In the south they sell "plates" on the downlow, home cooked bbq and crawfish boils, etc.

I disagree with this. I live in this area and haven’t slept well since I moved here. Traffic sounds are awful from Howe, Chapel, and Edgewood, kids randomly walk down the street yelling or chanting or whatever, people play their music cranked all the way up, there are soooo many sirens plus that stupid beer bus thing. Beyond noise, the light pollution is terrible, and I and friends who live in two other buildings on this block have put in more heat tickets than I knew was possible this winter. I’ve had packages stolen, the neighborhood is filled with trash to the point where I go around with a trash bag to try to pick it up, and my spouse got punched by a random man at 8am on a Sunday morning while walking our dog. If you’re going to be using the laundromat, expect to pay $8 a load, as well. 0/10, we are moving to the other side of town this summer. Maybe some buildings are better, but I don’t know anyone who likes living on these blocks.

Hi! I personally would not do it. Going to PM you.

I would recommend checking out the apartments on Howe St between chapel and Elm - I’ve never had a problem with noise and they’re more affordably priced. Also only a 15 min walk to YNHH
