NORWICH No matter what day of the week, there’s somebody relaxing at Howard T. Brown Park. Norwich resident Karen Carignan was visiting the park on Monday, visiting with her friend Gary Moyer and playing checkers.
“Coming down here is nice and peaceful, except for a siren every once in a while,” Carignan said. “That’s to be expected downtown.”
Harbor Commission Chairman Tucker Braddock hopes new funding will keep the park an attraction for those in and near Norwich.
Brown Park is on Chelsea Harbor Drive next to Norwich Harbor, where the Shetucket and Yantic rivers meet to form the Thames River.
