About the Connecticut State House Site - 1831-1874
The Connecticut State House Site in New Haven, Connecticut, was a significant location in the state's history from 1831 to 1874. Designed by architect Ithiel Town, the State House was a grand Greek Revival-style building that served as one of the state's capitals alongside Hartford. It housed both state and county government offices, with legislative sessions alternating between Hartford and New Haven.
After serving as a capital for over 40 years, the New Haven State House was ultimately replaced by Hartford as the sole capital in 1875. Despite efforts to preserve the iconic building and convert it into a public library, the City Council decided to demolish it in 1887, sparking controversy among residents. The site was cleared and reverted to park land, erasing the physical reminders of its historical significance.
Today, the former Connecticut State House Site on the New Haven Green stands as a testament to the city's colonial past and its role as a co-capital of the state. Though the building is gone, the legacy of the site lives on in the memories of those who remember its grandeur and importance in Connecticut's history.
