Fair Haven’s Iglesia de Dios Pentecostal, future learning hub site.
Four churches in Fair Haven, Dixwell, and Newhallville won permission to run daycare centers-turned-learning hubs — to offer relief to working parents who can’t leave their kids home alone during the day, and reliable internet and in-person educational support to students.
Neighbors Lee Cruz and Christel Manning outside the empty school.
Three years after its last failed attempt, the city is gearing up again to find someone to redevelop the vacant former Strong School — this time by extending the vision of change to the surrounding “district.”

Titania Galliher, who plays Frankie in the film Northern Shade — written and directed by Chris Rucinski and currently shooting in New Haven — stood at the edge of the water in Fair Haven Monday afternoon, overlooking the Quinnipiac River. The scene was simple: Galliher was to drive up to the shoreline in her car, get out, take a look around, and then head down to the water. She did it once, getting out, taking a glance, then heading where she needed to go.
“Cut!” said Rucinski, standing next to the camera. “We’re going to do it again.”

Pellegrino conducts auction while Roberts stakes a prime spot.
“It’s hard for us to compete with these guys. They have big money,” rued Fair Haven’s Robert Roberts, motioning to a pair of suited speculators who stood huddled in front of a luxury sedan, whispering in conversation as they waited for a foreclosure auction to begin.
Fair Haven’s top cop had to to scramble to find officers to address some major trouble spots during a tough crime month in Fair Haven — even after the chief approved overtime.
