NORWALK, Conn. – Lisa Wilson Grant’s years of dedication came to fruition Sunday with the rededication of the Nathan Hale monument at Fodor Farm.
The monument honoring the American Revolutionary War hero, who was hanged by the British in 1776, was erected in 1901 on West Avenue, along the trail Hale took on his spy mission during the American Revolution, as a drinking fountain for horses, people, and dogs, by the Norwalk chapter of the Daughters of American Revolution (DAR),
It was taken apart in the 1920s and its pieces went to different places, Norwalk Historic Commission Chairwoman Dana Laird said Sunday. When Grant became involved, the 31,000-pound granite trough was in Wilton. Another part, the stele, was at Nathan Hale Middle School.

NORWALK, Conn. Who gets access to city-owned fields in Norwalk? How are they being used? What impact do the COVID-related scheduling concerns have on field usage?
These are some of the questions that came up at the Feb. 10 meeting of the Common Council’s Recreation and Parks committee. For a long time, access to the fields has been run by “an old boys’ group,” Council member John Kydes (D, District C) said, stating that many agreements were made verbally or through “handshake” arrangements.
“A lot of these leagues have gotten comfortable with the ‘old boys league,’” he said. “And now we’ve grown to the size where I think we need to just reign them in, and just kind of streamline this process.”
The City plans to demolish this former home, next to Nathan Hale Middle School.
NORWALK, Conn. An unusual hearing ended Wednesday with a unanimous Board of Condemnation vote to demolish 162 Strawberry Hill Ave., deemed unsafe due to a fire. The house is located near Nathan Hale Middle School.
“It’s come to our attention and concern about the structural stability of the building,” Chief Building Officer William Ireland said. “Since we have an adjacent school and tennis courts, and we are in fear of collapse really structurally because of the weight of snow. There’s also some health and fire issues there. And of course, like you just mentioned the significant fire damage over the past year.”
