Dear Friends of the Downtown: Welcome to the annual Stamford Downtown Directory, a handy reference for all things Downtown.

This Directory highlights the restaurants, services, stores, clubs, galleries and theaters in Stamford Downtown, most of which can be found within walking distance of each other.

Visit the Ferguson Library, enjoy a rest at one of our outdoor parks or dine “al fresco” at an outdoor café; whatever you want to…Stamford Downtown is the place to do it! Discover the Stamford Symphony and our compelling Alive@Five and Jazz up July Summer Concert series, UBS Parade Spectacular, the Art in Public Places sculpture exhibit, the downtown’s engaging art venues, and numerous other “fun” events. We are adding more exciting things to do every year.

We invite to you to come Downtown, with this Directory in hand, and experience the history, the energy and the vigor of Stamford Downtown. This is the Place!

Sincerely,

Randall M. Salvatore Chairman Board of Commissioners

Sandy Goldstein President­ Stamford Downtown ­ Special Services District

STAMFORD DOWNTOWN

Our Insurance Services Are Growing To Meet The Needs Of Our City Similar to the recent development Stamford has undertaken, our agency’s capabilities expanded this year when we became part of the Cross Insurance family, one of New England’s largest insurance providers.

However, we continue to be a local, family run, independent agency dedicated to assisting those who live and work in our growing city.

Our agency’s experienced staff invites you to call us for your business and personal insurance needs. And when you do call, you will speak to a person, and not a never ending series of voice mail prompts. You’ll see why our expertise and personalized service have made us a trusted resource in the community for over 29 years.

We proudly acknowledge the Stamford Downtown Services District, as well as many local businesses and residents of our community, as some of our valued clients.
