Downtown Middletown is buzzing with activity and cool apartments!

Charming Business University River Walkable Shopping Connecticut

A charming business district nestled along the Connecticut River makes Downtown Middletown an excellent neighborhood for food, fun, and apartment living. It’s always buzzing with activity, from kayaking on the water to drink-grabbing with friends at the Hop Knot.

Formally a vessel port turned industrial center, Downtown Middletown is now a largely residential community encompassed with artisanal shops, retail boutiques, and cafés on Main Street near Wesleyan University.

It’s safe to say that if you’re not hanging out inside your apartment, you’re probably taking advantage of the natural scenic views and sun at Harbor Park. You’ll appreciate how close everything is from one another, as well as the easily accessible street parking. The lifestyle of Downtown Middletown sure does excite, so find your home today!
