1. Road Closure Announced In Norwalk Due To Wire Removal Work: City (patch.com) — Drivers in Norwalk should plan around a closure of North Water Street between Washington and Marshal streets, in effect day and night through the end of Friday's day shift. The shutdown supports high tower wire removal for the WALK Bridge project, while pedestrian access along the route will remain open, keeping foot traffic moving in the area.
2. Norwalk Home With 'Expansive Backyard' Listed For Sale (patch.com) — Norwalk home shoppers can check out a four-bedroom, 2.5-bath ranch on Alvin Drive in the desirable Silvermine neighborhood, now listed for $925,000. The property features over 2,600 square feet of living space, a flexible floor plan, and an expansive, level backyard in a charming residential area.
3. Peer review of Manresa Wilds traffic plan recommends moving guard gate, getting more data (nancyonnorwalk.com) — Norwalk officials are weighing a peer-reviewed traffic plan for the proposed Manresa Wilds park that could reshape Woodward and Longshore avenues, including a new roundabout and moving the guard gate deeper onto the site. Consultants urge more data, phased traffic studies, and possible limits on large events, while city staff push for safeguards so the project doesn't overwhelm nearby neighborhoods.
4. Free Community Days at The Glass House in New Canaan (nancyonnorwalk.com) — Norwalk readers are invited to snag free advance tickets for two Community Days at Philip Johnson's Glass House in nearby New Canaan on Aug. 27 and Sept. 13.
