Hartford turns 400 in 2035.
What can we accomplish between now and then?

What is Hartford 400?

Hartford400, overseen by The iQuilt Partnership, is a river-centered vision plan for Hartford and the region that integrates our environmental, economic, social, transportation, and cultural aspirations. The transformative projects of Hartford 400 are the HartlineRiver Road, and Riverlink. These planned and underway projects and complementary developments across the region will make the region a more sustainable, prosperous, equitable, mobile, and vibrant place for future generations: a place to “green, grow, live, move, and play” for all its inhabitants.

Hartford 400 Suisman Urban Design

“An excellent plan for the heart of Hartford, envisioning unifying and livable strategies. It reimagines the next generation of cities. It solves the problems of the previous generation of urban planning. It aggregates a number of moves: it removes elevated freeways, connects to the river, and creates a linear park. As the design is realized, it needs to consider how to connect to the urban fabric and make sure that the people that inhabit the adjacent area can remain.”
