  • Hartford City FC’s third and final regular-season clash with New Haven United ended in a 3–1 loss at Reese Stadium — but not without moments of grit, urgency, and heart. The Colts came out pressing, nearly breaking through in the 10th minute with a sharp chance from Pearse O’Brien. Matteo Azambuja pulled one back in the second half, a spark that energized the squad and traveling fans. But a late counter sealed it for New Haven. It wasn’t the result Hartford came for, but the fire, chemistry, and commitment on display point to a club still building momentum. Read the full recap from Head Coach Andy — link in bio.
  • 🚧 Hartford, Reimagined 🚧 Big changes could be coming to I-84 and I-91 — and with them, a chance to reconnect our city. The Envision Hartford plan is about more than roads. It’s about restoring access to the river, revitalizing neighborhoods, and building a more equitable, walkable future. 🏙️ Reconnect communities 🚶 Prioritize people over cars 🌉 Repair past infrastructure harm It’s bold. It’s overdue. And it’s rooted in Hartford. 📲 Read the full story — link in our bio. #HartfordTimes #UrbanPlanning #InfrastructureEquity #HartfordCT #CommunityDevelopment #RebuildBetter #PublicSpaceMatters
