Splendid Structures: Historical Structures on East Rock Mountain, New Haven, Connecticut
First posted on WordPress here.
For posts on all structures such as temples, churches and building I have come across, go here.
Prologue: A series that showcases the large statues, beautiful temples and churches I visit in my travels or I accidentally come across while taking an off-beaten path. And sometimes yes, I would include buildings and palaces too.
The East Rock Mountain amazes us with some Historical structures, some of them only in ruins, that have been there since the 1800s. A few that we came across on our trail were - Ruins of what used to be The Forge; Giant Steps that lead to the top; A monolith with no name and wondered what it would signify; Steel Bridge on Mill River; Coal Shed built in 1804; The Acme Wire Company's building built in 1904 now used as a museum; Ruins of the Armory and the Armory Building. So much history we walked through that built the grounds of New Haven as it stood now.
