East Rock Park and Lighthouse Point are great even during winter. Plenty of bookstores in the downtown area to hang out in. Stella Blues and Cafe Nine for more intimate music venues, the State House is great too. New Haven museum and Leitner Observatory are also a good time. To everyone trashing New Haven/CT, what do other states have that make this area so boring? Elm City has plenty to offer, maybe some people aren’t looking hard enough or even giving it a chance
