Interesting blog post at http://runawayjim.org/2008/04/18/i-heart-new-haven/ which discusses New Haven as well as a few issues related to mass transit.
"I can’t help but compare it to Providence. Unfortunately, there’s no comparison. Downtown New Haven is an urban delight. It’s very walkable, the development is very urban, it’s clean, and it’s super vibrant.... New Haven is clean and it feels safe all over downtown. The signs are inviting, the streets are lit at night. It feels like a much larger city, yet it has about 50,000 fewer people than Providence. Being in the same class of cities, Providence should be looking to New Haven as a model of how to do things correctly."
