Meriden

Meriden sits in the Quinnipiac River valley in central Connecticut, where the basalt summits of the Hanging Hills rise above the city. Hubbard Park extends into these hills and includes Castle Craig, a stone observation tower built on East Peak in 1900. Meriden became known as the Silver City through its 19th-century silverware and cutlery industries, a legacy still reflected in local identity. The city’s position between New Haven and Hartford also makes it part of Connecticut’s long-established urban corridor. See how Meriden fits within central Connecticut by browsing webcams nearby.
