Yes. Friendly space IME, take their intro and see how you like it.

THIS IS EVERYTHING THAT HAS HAPPENED!!!!

Your right… Lombardis in New York is often given this honor… Frank Pepe’s started selling his tomato pies in the 20s… Lombary’s started 1903 or around then… and they are credited with also being the pizzería that created the idea of selling individual pizza slices as workers would wrap them in tin foil and eat el at lunch while at their construction jobs.

Thanks for the clarification.

Yeah, most Italian immigrants lived in New York City because of Ellis Island before they came to New Haven so it doesn’t seem right for American pizza, either. I’m happy to be corrected though 🤷🏻‍♀️

“Town built a small bridge in Whitneyville, Connecticut, to introduce his design.”

>On January 28, 1820, architect Ithiel Town was granted a patent for a wooden truss bridge, also known as Town's Lattice Truss.

>An architect and civil engineer, Town had already built the first covered bridges to span the Connecticut River, one at Hartford and two in Massachusetts at Springfield and Northampton.

Here’s the patent: https://www.datamp.org//patents/search/advance.php?pn=3169X&id=39852&set=1

I thought the first truss bridge was in Hamden? I vaguely remember reading one of those city plaques, near town hall, that mentioned a truss bridge.

Cool - at a cursory glance seams exaggerated.

First pizza is def not true unless we stipulate US. The glider seaplane one seems sketch also unless we’re being very specific about wording. First computer is also not the accepted timeline - you either count Babbage or wait till ENIAC in 43.

Wow! This is awesome

First Chemo is kinda interesting

You are wrong with this..don’t know where you grew up, but everyone I worked with and lived by, never heard of it and if they saw a car or group that were not from around their neighborhood, they would tell them they are out of candy. I make some calls because you make it sound like this was a thing everywhere. Maybe in the deep city.

So, I asked my friend about the 2 bowl candy thing, and he said it just started 5 years ago in his neighborhood. This is their last year of giving out candy because there are no local kids left, they all grew up. He said he actually had a bus pull up on his street and everyone turned their lights off and locked up for the night.

Hellstrom Road East Haven!!!

It's perfectly spaced, and you get significant candy at each house.

Dali tattoos they are located on Whalley ave

Its called trunk or treat. Its a pretty common celebration now and some parents feel its safer than going door to door.

I saw a clip of people trick or treating in a mall parking lot like they were tailgating 🤮

Spring Glen, Woodlawn to Thornton and you can park at Spring Glen United church go down Thornton to Greenway and work your way back at Ardmore or Woodlawn

Westville usually has tons of kids trick-ortreating, and lots of decorated houses. Try to avoid driving around there, a lot of people walking around and it’s not super well-lit. Maybe park on the edge or in one of the parking lots in the center of westville and walk in. Alden is usually a good place to start.

Usually lots of trick-or-treaters in East Rock too. More compact and dense than Westville.

Wooster Square has historically had lots of decorations. I think there was a dog costume parade held there last week. I don’t know if there are a lot of trick-or-treaters.

Now I know what my friends were talking about by having separate candy for kids.

Thank you… I just didn’t know kids do that today… don’t get the downvotes either….

Welp no reasoning with human trash obviously

Lol stfu
