I Fell for Danbury

A panoramic map of Danbury, Connecticut, c. 1875. Danbury, Connecticut is a small, safe, brick-lined city in the western part of the state, sidled up against New York’s Putnam County. 83,000 people live here, including myself, and an additional 20,000 or so come to Danbury to work. It’s a diverse city in both age and ethnicity, home to a college, a state university, and a mall; it has a rich history, remarkable architecture, and some killer restaurants.
