Long Wharf Waterfront Park

The National Veterans Council is currently working on a project to develop a schematic plan for redevelopment of the Long Wharf Waterfront Park, where there is a collection of war memorials, including the Vietnam Veteran Memorial and are sited between I-95 and the New Haven Harbor. This project will not only be enhancement of the Vietnam Memorial and how it is use by the public as a place of memory but will also be an exciting new comprehensive vision for this disconnected part of New Haven. This vision to revitalize the Long Wharf Waterfront Park would allow for small groups to gather, major celebrations to solitary reflections. This project will En-tale moving monuments, to landscaping, seating area and making the waterfront a scenic area that would produce a cohesive public space befitting this prominent place of remembrance, we also envision small boats, tour boats/taxis, small vendor shops and eateries along the waterfront. That would add to the scenic view of the waterfront.
