Fireworks Will Go On

New Haven’s sky will light up with fireworks on July 4, after all.

The government has found private donors to pay for a display from the top of East Rock. It is set to begin Monday evening at 9:15.

Officials plan to offer details about the event and the funding at Wednesday press conference.

The fireworks took place from the rock’s summit last year, too. So … any suggestions for the best viewing spots nearby? If so, please comment below.
