For decades, highways have divided neighborhoods and cut our city off from the Connecticut River. Our Hartford400 vision imagines a different future: reconnecting downtown, creating new parks and boulevards, and opening the riverfront to everyone. And, we're not the only ones who think that.. what do you think?
