First snow in Middletown


Lucy and I have a tradition of flaunting our downtown address during snowstorms and walking downtown to have dinner at a Main Street restaurant.

It allows us to prove to ourselves the advantage of living two blocks from Main Street, and to support a local eatery on a difficult night.

Tonight, with six to eight inches of snow already on the ground, we chose Public, for burgers and wings and were suprised when our server, Dawn, volunteered a snow show outside our window, making a snow angel to the delight of our sons.

As we left, a group of Middletown village district teens was walking down Main Street enjoying the quiet, and the beauty of a pre-holiday snowfall.

Yes! The whole reason why we choose to live so close to downtown. Ian and I walked over to Iliano's on South Main Street last night and had the most delicious meal. They were surprisingly busy too. -Karen Swartz

Can you objectively review the burgers and wings, given the romance surrounding the experience? Thanks!

Where is Middletown's village district located?

In the Village People's minds.

Sorry way to express your envy.

The Village District is bordered by Washington Street on the North, High Street on the West, Loveland Street on the South and Broad Street and South Main Streets on the East.

BTW, it is also a state of mind.
