  3. Should Coltsville be a National Park?

    For a dozen years, U.S. Rep. John Larson and other officials have tirelessly promoted the notion of turning Coltsville, the former industrial village in Hartford’s South Meadows, into a National Historic Park. Millions of dollars have been invested by public and private sources to make the complex a mix of businesses and residences as well as a national park, somewhat like the Lowell Mills in Lowell, Mass. Then came the horrific killings of 20 children and  six female educators in Newtown on Dec. 14. Should the massacre stop the park proposal in its tracks? Some say it should, that it’s just the wrong time to pay homage to guns. Others say it shouldn’t, that the point of the project is place the factory in its historical context, as is done with famous plantations were slaves were kept, and to help revive Hartford.
