Flagpoles in New Haven

A university and hospital city laid out on nine squares around a green, with a working deepwater port along the bottom of it. We cover New Haven and the New Haven County area, including the New Haven Green and the Nine Squares, Yale's Old Campus, Hillhouse Avenue and Science Hill, the Yale New Haven medical district, Wooster Square, East Rock and Westville, Union Station, Long Wharf and the port.

Wind here. New Haven sits in a harbourside urban area, which works out to roughly 125 mph under the code your town uses. That figure decides how wide and how thick the pole has to be, so we check it against your address before we quote. The Green is not city land. It belongs to the Committee of the Proprietors of the Common and Undivided Lands, five self-perpetuating trustees whose standing the legislature confirmed in 1810, and nothing goes on the Green without them, whatever City Hall thinks of it. Yale owns a good deal more of what reads as public ground, so a campus pole is settled with the university before the city ever sees an application. At 125 mph New Haven sits a step above the Fairfield shore and a step below the New London corner, and the figure is still not the thing that moves the quote. Long Wharf and Sargent Drive are made ground, filled first for the railyards and then for the highway, with open harbour in front of them and nothing to break it, so a pole down there gets a designed footing and fittings chosen for salt.

Most of the people who call us from New Haven are university and hospital buildings, laboratory and biotech offices, downtown hotels and restaurants, schools, churches, city buildings and the port and Long Wharf businesses.
