New Haven Green
Surveyor John Brockett created this square as part of his plan for New Haven in 1640. During its early history, the green served variously as a parade ground and as a cemetery. Reverend James Pierpont planted the square’s first elms in 1686; politician James Hillhouse added more in 1784 as part of his city improvement effort. During the early nineteenth century, architects Ithiel Town and Asher Benjamin designed the First Church of Christ and Trinity Episcopal Church within the green, and David Hoadley designed the United Church of Christ.
