The Building of English Shelter at East Rock Park

New Haven: It's Modern.

Check out all these modernist buildings. 

The nice folks at the Preservation Trust (with a full calendar of events) have taken the time to make an informative website about modernist architecture in New Haven. The site is NewHavenModern.Org; in this preview, you'll get a chance to learn about modern architecture in the context of our city, and it will also give you a chance to explore a few of the featured buildings in the website, which is an online architectural design resource and art exhibit.
