  • Downtown Stamford, Connecticut is an economically thriving section of Stamford, Connecticut, USA, with major retail establishments, a shopping mall and the headquarters of major corporations, as well as other retail businesses and offices. In recent years more housing has been built in the neighborhood, and more is planned. With transportation widely seen as one of the biggest challenges facing the economy of Stamford, the Downtown has become more important as an area within walking distance of the Metro-North train station, which is one of the busiest on the New Haven Line. The Downtown area has been the heart of Stamford, Connecticut since colonial times. Much of the history of Stamford took place there. Most of the southern half of Downtown has been designated as a historic district, listed as the Downtown Stamford Historic District on the National Register of Historic Places. The city plans to make improvements to the Atlantic Street underpass beneath the New Haven Line railroad tracks just east of the Stamford Transportation Center in order to alleviate a traffic bottleneck. The improvements are also meant to allow quicker evacuation of areas of the South End if disaster strikes. The project received a $245,000 earmark in the federal budget passed in December 2007.
