The neighborhood of Fair Haven blends maritime history with one of the most unique and beautiful views in New Haven. Minutes from Yale University, world-class dining including the famous New Haven Style Pizza (called “abeetz” here) and amazing museums, entertainment and culture. Once a thriving oystering village, the neighborhood still reflects its waterfront roots with docks, boats, and 19th-century homes (like ours!) that line the bends of the river. The mix of a working shoreline, historic charm, and New England character makes Fair Haven a wonderful place to call home during your stay.
