What is Remembering Old Hartford?

It’s a community of subscribers who share a love of Hartford, Connecticut and its amazing history. Whether you remember Hartford before the city was transformed by urban renewal, want to learn about the old days when it was the wealthiest city in the United States, or are curious about the stories behind its many historic buildings and landmarks, I encourage you to join us.

I’ve researched and written two books about historic Hartford and created numerous videos on the city’s lost buildings for my YouTube channel “History with Dan Sterner.” Now, through this Substack newsletter I hope to share even more fascinating information about the city’s people and places.
