East Haven

Built around the agricultural East Farms settlement east of the Quinnipiac River, East Haven grew into a Connecticut shoreline town on Long Island Sound. First settled in 1638 and incorporated as a separate town in 1785, it retains a distinct identity beside the larger city of New Haven. Its coast includes Cosey Beach, while the Farm River marks part of the boundary with Branford. The Shore Line Trolley Museum preserves historic streetcars and reflects the region’s long connection with urban transit.
