Temple Court

Temple Court is a mixed use development that spans much of the block between Temple Street and Whitney Avenue to the East and West, and Grove and Trumbull Streets to the South and North. Temple Court refers to the complex of three-floor and single unit condominium residences that are at the center of the complex, while Whitney-Grove Square is the name used to refer to the entire development. This entry focuses on the development from the Temple Street side, and looks into the integration of the brown stone style new condominiums with the older brownstones still standing on the street. Although it has some aesthetic shortcomings in my opinion, Temple Court provides dwellings well suited to the needs of its residents. The two residents I spoke with both appreciated the development for its ability to create a sense of privacy, and safety while still providing one of the best central downtown locations available in New Haven.
