There is a new alcoholic beverage on
the market. It is called Bourbon Renewal.
Drink enough of it and the old
neighborhood starts to look good.
Wouldn't it be
wonderful if the Ice Cream Truck could play more than one tune?
Neighbors keep
complaining about the prostitutes hanging around and using the outdoor pay phones a lot
... is that why they are called
"Call Girls" ?

Tour de CT
TOUR OF
CONNECTICUT 2003
 Hillside
leg of the race flawless!
Hillside Historian

May 17, 2003
WATERBURY
-- The
1 1/4 mile stretch of the Tour de CT bicycle race climbed through the steep
terrain of the Hillside Historic District with perfect precision.
The course additionally traversed shorter and flatter segments in the Downtown
and Overlook Historic Districts as well as terrain behind and above the Fulton
Memorial Park.
Marshals attended their posts, Police were stationed at intersections and even
the fact that more roads were completely closed than expected caused little
disruption to the area.
Punctually at noon, Police vehicles and motorcycles raced through the course
signaling the start of the event, and were momentarily followed by 160
colorfully clad cyclists who would reach speeds of 60mph on downhill treks.
15 times around the course, traversing hills that rise 500 feet above the
starting within a 1 1/2 mile distance.
Racers did indeed attain speeds of 60+mph on Greenwood and later on Pine,
amazing spectators with both the speed and ability of the riders. They
navigated turns at high speeds that could only leave us walking folk in awe.
As the race passed the halfway point, spectators were briefly puzzled as to
the apparent disappearance of over half of the cyclists which had been removed
by officials as having lagged too far behind the lead packs. Slight
humor emerged as street-side spectators concluded they had no count as to
laps. One resident quipped, "We might just be sitting here and the
race may be over". Others figured that when Police opened the roads
it would surely be over.
The race started and ended on the Waterbury Green and there was no live TV or
Radio coverage available to spectators.
#13, still a neighborhood favorite had steadily gained enormous ground on the
leader in his fight to return to the lead spot.
Hundreds of persons parked along the side streets accessible from east and
westerly directions and walked the short distance to the race route.
Many brought chairs and refreshments.
The Walfords, Toms Nalband and Ferrare, Josh Angelus, Eleanor Herbst, Shep
Wild and Joe Reynolds held court at the corner of Central and Hillside while
further up the hill every corner contained Hillside residents enjoying the
spectacle. Aldo & Brenda Cipriano along with Thompson Curtis
thrilled to each moment at the course intersection at Pine and Hillside.
The Zembruski family was loving the event from the wall in front of their home
on Pine Street.
Ray Walsh, a retired city police officer was found with Charlie Boulier and
his family att he corner of Buckingham and Bill Moran was just across the
street.
Molly and Michael Perkins joined Tony and Maureen Bergin on on both the East
veranda and the lawn of the Bergin's Law Office at the corner of Buckingham
and Pine.
We found a couple of Moriarity youngins serving as street marshals on Kellogg
and Buckingham. They said Gail and Michael (their parents) were at the
House on the Hill party ... we were just there and No Gail and Michael were to
be found ...mmm!
The Groshans on the corner of Woodlawn Terrace found the greatest place in the
city was their own front lawn and front porch.
Joe and Elaine Puzzo were happily camped on the north corner of Woodlawn by
the wall and the Vandenburgh party atop the hill carried on with mostly
persons from neighboring neighborhoods to the north.
The best place by far to experience the race was curbside ... close to all the
action! Next year folks, bring the parties right down to the
street-sides!

WATERBURY
-- 160
professional cyclists will race through the rugged terrain of the Waterbury
hills traversing the 100K Waterbury leg of the Tour de CT on May 17th.
John Eustice
sports commentator for the Tour de France, had
a definite glint in his eye as he detailed the difficulties of the route
for the "Tour de CT" bicycle race through the hilly terrain of
the Historic Districts of Waterbury. The route begins at the town Green
and is a continuous uphill climb to roads above and behind Fulton Park
... and the 160 participants get to do it 15 times in a 21/2 hour
period. Eustice exclaimed that this segment of the race is
best suited for mountain goats and only the very best will be able to
succeed here.
The Waterbury Green, the starting and ending point, will be more like a
circus midway and the racers will be proceeded by a fleet of
motorcycles, Saturns (one of the sponsors) and a fleet of TV camera bearing
motorcycles recording every eventful moment of the race. The Life
Network will be broadcasting the entire race, and WTNH and WCTX are also
providing coverage of the event. Timex is also an official sponsor of
the event.
Cyclists will run the course 15 times in a 2 1/2 hour period to complete the
100K race and of the entire course length, 1 1/4 miles of each lap traverse
through the steepest hills in the Hillside Historic District.
The race begins on the West end of the Green and proceeds up Holmes Avenue,
across Grove, up Central Avenue,
over Hillside and then up Pine, across Cooke and up the small roads that
border the North of Fulton park. After the ride above the park, the riders
will come down by the basketball courts and past the ball field traveling over
a short stretch of Flemming St. to Columbia Blvd. Columbia Blvd will take
the riders back to Pine Street and down to Willow and back to and around the
Green. Racers will be attaining speeds of 60mph.
The event will begin at noon on Saturday, May 17th and throughout the event
all roads involved will be completely closed to vehicular traffic.
The full race begins in a speed racing event around the New Haven Green the
night before, Friday May 16th. Participants will then spend the night in
Waterbury before the local portion of the race here, and on Sunday they will
conclude the 3 day event in the Danbury area, competing in the endurance
portion via the decade old Housatonic Valley Race.
There will be winners of each leg of the race and one overall winner to be
decided upon the conclusion of the festivities on Sunday.
Of the 160 riders, most are professionals with only 1 to 2 amateur teams
competing. The event is currently men only.
Volunteers are needed to serve as Marshalls and the like, and as John Eustice,
the project director stated several times, Marshall volunteers get a free
T-Shirt and a very loud whistle. :)

C-TOWN
PROPOSAL EXCITES BOTH OWNERS AND HISTORIC DISTRICT ASSOCIATION ALIKE!
The firm of Herbert S Newman & Partners presented a
sparkling new approach to the C-Town retail center development being considered for
the corner of Grove and Cooke Streets. The proposed new development
would create a new C-Town increased in size to approximately 18,000 square
feet, and additional retail space of nearly 15,000 square feet.
Originally begun as an NRZ enhancement grant, the C-Town project (conceptually
in existance as a mini strip mall) was selected by Hillside as a viable
economical development project for the Historic District. C-Town
officials were enthusiastic when approached with the idea of development
assistance and the partnership between Hillside, C-Town and the State Office
of Economic Development have partnered in the project for the past many
months. Preston Maynard coordinated the State effort and consultant
Robert Forte, hired by the state through Hillside's NRZ Grant, coordinated
community and commercial interests locally.
Both architects and State personnel have expressed amazement as to how well
the C-Town and Hillside personnel have worked together to merge the two
differing views of the project. The result is quite appealing to all,
meeting codes of the city, commercial needs of the project and incorporation
of Historic sensitivity and incorporation of small but unique personal space.
No flat roofs and no box buildings in this proposal!
The process is now being presented to various developers and the
determinations of final costs will dictate the future actions of C-Town, as
they will be funding construction without State or City assistance.
Robert VanGeons of the city's Downtown Economic Development Center has
committed to drawing the city into the process with street, sidewalk, street
parking and other infrastructure improvements as available. The target
location is within the Community Development area and federal funds can be
used for such enhancements.
More to come ... later :)

BLIZZARD
2003
22" OFFICIAL SNOWFALL
Generally we say Hillside was
"blanketed" with a charming snowfall, but this time we can
only refer to the storm as having "dumped" the largest
accumulation of this century. 22 inches measured the damages!
Warm weather is saving the city and Hillside from total paralysis as
temperatures in the 40's promote a natural clearing of plowed
roads and shoveled sidewalks..

PARKING
BAN SURPRISE TO ALL
Residents forced in to dangerous Blizzard conditions to Shovel Out
then Move Cars!
Waterbury Police decided 6:30pm Monday night was a
great time to show up in lower Hillside with lights flashing, PA Systems
blaring, and doors being knocked upon informing residents to move all
vehicles to the odd side of the street. As Hillside had always
been told to park on the even side during storms, miles of cars had to
be relocated in a blinding snow that had already accumulated to 19
inches.
To further strain the situation, city crews had not pushed back snow on
the odd side all winter, leaving no space available to relocate cars.
Dave was able to plow open some spaces, but others had to use the
Prospect Street Ramp Garage and walk home in treacherous
conditions.
This is the first time since the Blizzard of 1978 that any type of
Parking restriction had been implemented for undesignated streets and
caught everyone by surprise.
Forcing people into a blizzard and further forcing them to navigate icy
roadways may not have been the brightest move local officials have ever
made.
Hillside officials have been unable to secure any type of document from
the city specifying the Snow Parking Ordinance.

HISTORIC
DISTRICT MEMBERS AND NAFI AGENCY CREATE
HISTORICALLY COMPATIBLE EXPANSION PLAN
A State funded 4.5 Million Dollar expansion plan to the detention center
in the Rose Hill Mansion has been finalized after months of intensive
and often vocal efforts between North American Family Institute (NAFI)
and the Hillside Historic District representatives.
Intense input from Hillside served as the catalyst for coordinated
efforts involving the State Historical Commission. The final plan
was presented to the Zoning Board of Appeals at their December 16th
meeting and is awaiting results of further study by that commission.

PALACE
THEATRE TOUR
HAD MOMENT OF CONCERN :)
About half way through the Hillside Historic
District private tour of the Palace Theatre, a few tense moments were
encountered as the group, along with the theatre director were locked
inside the century old, 3000 seat facility undergoing restoration.
A security guard had locked the construction door from the outside,
apparently unaware the group was still inside.

TED
WILLIAMS
Baseball
Legend Visit To Hillside |
|
In the early 60's,
Ted Williams and Miss New York City were guests at the home of then
Mayor Ed Bergin, Sr., at 92 Woodlawn Terrace. The home is now the House
on the Hill B&B. |
|
|
Neighbors in the immediate area were also on hand to meet and greet the
tall baseball legend, and in those days this was Boston Red Sox
territory! |
|
Other neighbors were equally fascinated at meeting the perky Miss New
York City :)
Later that evening Ted Williams arrived at Municipal Stadium in
Waterbury to bat against the legendary softball pitcher, Joannie Joyce
in a sport exhibition.
Joan Joyce struck him out! She shut down the greatest hitter
known to baseball.
A night of legends ... and remembrances in Waterbury, Connecticut. |
Peter Judd - Fireside Chat
A Warm
& Friendly Evening
New neighbors,
old neighbors, old friends, good music, good food and great story telling of
the "neighborhood of olde" energized the spirit, warmed the soul and
satisfied the hunger.
Peter Judd presented his recollections of the neighborhood in the '30's and
40's as viewed through his childhood, and before all was said and done heard a
couple of new stories of his family from some "more senior"
residents.
Peter revisited the yards he played in as a child, joined the walking tour as
Shep Wild guided about 30 guests through the mansion of his parents, and
quickly accepted a diversion through 111 Buckingham Street, another home he
lived in as a child.
The event was a reunion and recollection for Peter and an education for all
others. for

ANNUAL SUMMER GATHERING - JUNE 30th!
Hillside
... Always Ready for Barbeque
7-30--02
About 8 happy handfulls of Hillside
residents and friends continued the grand tradition of a gala Annual Summer Picnic, also known as the
"Summer Gathering".
( hint: 5 fingers per hand x 8 )
The pot luck supper featured House on the Hill prepared barbeque beef and
barbeque pork which was accompanied by the amazing variety of specialties
always provided by the many Hillside culinary experts.
Festivities were held in the West patio, an area generally reserved for
Wedding Receptions and comfortable gatherings.
The afternoon heat and humidity deterred no one and the festivities provided
an informal mingling of the newest and oldest residents of this exceptional
Historic District.
Last year the Hillside entertained guests from Warner Bros. in California, and
this year went international with guests: Gunnar from Sweden and Rolf from
Germany. They are both technology dudes installing a new computer system
for an international company here in Waterbury.
Mrs. Reynolds "secret recipe" baked beans were in evidence and she and the Doctor
made a last minute decision to make their annual appearance coming in from
their new home in Southbury.
Tom and Theresa Groshans, who recently bought the Reynolds mansion
joined the previous owners for a spirited discussion and enhanced everyone's party spirit :)
Marie Hayes was the proud grandmother in attendance with daughter and
grandchild ... and a late arrival, Hazel O'Neill announced she had just become a
grandmother!
Always nice to see Glen and Harold. What do you mean they do not live
here any more! They are still so much a part of the neighborhood.
Great Party ... Have a nice summer :)
44
WILLOW STREET
"Plan" Is More Like A "Wish"
5-7--02
A
presentation for proposed development by the new owner of 44 Willow Street
left Hillside residents angry and disillusioned.
After a decade of fighting to a point where Lower Willow is now receiving a
half-million dollar State funded restoration, a proposed plan by a New York first time
developer stands to impede the overall concept of the entire revitalization
plan.
"The gentleman hasn't done his homework" quipped one resident.
The proposed housing development project leaves serious questions regarding
violations of zoning regulations, lack of any marketing study, lack of a
financial plan, and inexperience of the developer. Two other
multi-million dollar restoration attempts to this same building have totally
failed in the past.
The new owner has yet to make any payments on the $225,000.00 owed in back
taxes.
Area representatives were also alarmed when the developers lawyer divulged the
property had been purchased via an exchanged between friends for $1.00+
and the project would be financially unsecured via the use of an "LLC".
EARTH
DAY CLEAN-UP
3 Crews Clean Most of District
4-23-02
A
crew of 5 set out from Stepping Stone on Prospect Street and a dozen and a
half more set forth from Cliff Street for Hillside's annual Earth Day
clean-up.
Hazel O'Neill, Elaine Puzzo, Josh Angelus, and Dave & Shirley Walford
worked with the Cliff Street crew , including Director Maria Cardona and
activities Coordinator Yvette, who cleaned the West side of the neighborhood
and Joe Reynolds served as "Tour Guide" for the girls from Stepping
Stone as they eradicated litter from the East side of Hillside.
After several hours of healthy clean-up, the west Side crews brunched at
Community Solutions while the East Side crew "escaped" for Pizza at
Loui's.
Only one question remains: Has Tyra stopped talking yet?
See ya all next year ... and thanks!
MAYOR
and NVDC DEFEND
CONTRACT FOR
HILLSIDE AVENUE CAMPUS
3-6-02
Questioning frequently
focused on the $5,000 per month payment to be made by the Talmudic Institute
for the Hillside Avenue campus via a 50 year contract.
Michael O'Connor (Director of NVDC) reasoned
that all Hillside concerns had been addressed in the contract and that in lieu
of rental dollars the city and neighborhood were benefiting from mandatory
home purchases in Overlook and Hillside by the group, maintenance requirements
for campus upkeep and preservation, increased neighborhood stability through
the new occupants and the like. Ray Rivard of the Higher Education Board
rebutted that the lease amounted to 75¢ a sq. ft. for 80,000 sq feet instead
of the commercial average of $10 per sq ft.
Mayor Michael Jarjura stressed aspects of incorporating our new neighbors
(Talmudic Institute) into our community and has already had discussions with
their leadership regarding aspects of the meticulous nature of
"Waterbury Style" property maintenance.
Hillside
Ave Campus Contract
Signed by City
and Talmudic Institute
February 15,
2001
The contract between the City of Waterbury and the Talmudic Institute (the
Jewish school going into the Hillside Avenue Campus) was signed November 15,
2001 by all required parties after approval of the Board of Aldermen.
Of features related directly to Hillside:
Before the commencement date of the lease, the school must have moved in 15
families, with at least 5 of the families residing within the Hillside
Historic District.
100 families must be relocated to the area by the end of the 7th year, and one
third of those families must be relocated into the Hillside Historic District.
Families will purchase and rehabilitate existing houses in the neighborhood
and shall be privately owned and not tax exempt.
Hillside can continue to use the campus facilities for meetings and such with
proper planning.
City will appoint residents to serve on an advisory board regarding
maintenance of Benedict-Miller house and grounds.

The Hillside Website is also listed in the 2001 edition of "Who's Who on
the Web"
Catchy
Slogan ... Catches On!
What's different
about Hillside? ...Everything! Hillside residents have
always had a healthy view of their Victorian Era neighborhood ...
everything from restoration to crime ... and above all, they are
passionate about their living environment.
With so many homes being restored, and the age old prostitution problems
slowly receding to the history books, one Hillside Board member quipped
that a new Hillside slogan might be "Not just for hookers
...anymore!". A year and a half later, someone on the
Hillside Website staff applied a little artwork to the orphaned slogan and
zipped off a couple of mouse pads. The creation is now the hottest
item in town and being used as an unofficial fundraiser to help the
website and the neighborhood association

Aldo Cipriano appropriately dubbed this
Stump Grinder as the Stump Eraser. Certainly did a great job of

hour. Earlier in the week Southbury Tree Service removed the rest
of the tree but raised wheels off the ground trying to move this
