Step inside a Connecticut modern farmhouse with stunning waterfront views
This waterfront modern farmhouse was desgined by Cardello Architects together with Fletcher Custom Homes, nestled in Rowayton, a coastal village in the city of Norwalk, Connecticut. The narrow waterfront lot presented a design challenge. After looking at the home that used to occupy this lot, the most obvious design decision was to face the garage doors toward the street, but this parcel also included the rights to a side area that had been visually severed from the property.
Bears Call New Milford Home
A black bear has been making regular visits to a New Milford neighborhood, rummaging through trash cans and lounging in residents’ backyards. The bear, described by locals as a “repeat offender,” has been seen on Eden Lane about three to four times a month. While the bear has not shown aggression, residents are on alert. Across much of the state, as bear populations grow, these encounters are becoming more common. Connecticut’s Department of Energy and Environmental Protection advises using bear locks on garbage cans and reporting sightings to help track the bear population’s expansion.
We Camped with Wolves Just Outside of New York City

Roots Music, Live and Local
When most people rattle off the names of great blues guitarists, they name such British stalwarts as Jimmy Page, Eric Clapton and Jeff Beck. Of course, this does a total disservice to the African-American luminaries they all learned from, including Buddy Guy, T-Bone Walker, Albert Collins, B.B., Freddie and Albert King, Muddy Waters, and Howlin’ Wolf.
A History of Fine Dining in Ridgefield
Someone once said Ridgefield’s history could be written in terms of cakes and ale, cutlets and cocktails. Indeed, since 1950, some 200 restaurants have dished up delights in Ridgefield. In 1995, the town had 42 of them, one restaurant for every 523 residents. Certainly, a big slice of Ridgefield’s 20th Century fame lay in dining, but much of the notoriety stemmed from a quintet of top-flight inns.
