Inscription. Renovation of the New Haven Green
1986 – 1990 Laid out in the 1638 plan for the New Haven Colony, this 16-acre green is the physical and symbolic heart of the city and has borne witness to its most important historic events. In 1983, the New Haven community joined together to refurbish and renovate this remarkable landmark. The actual work was carried out between 1986-1990, thanks to generous gifts from hundreds of people and dozens of organizations, to whom we owe grateful thanks.
special acknowledgement is given to theses largest donors whose leadership gifts and grants were an inspiration to the entire project.
