This is another blunder for Hartford. No on dose anything for free. Someone got a kick back for this Pratt Street brain storm. Hartford will never be a West Hartford center or have a Blue Back. Hartford has been a roller coaster for a long, long time. Presently, the roller coaster seats are empty. There is no longer any motion.

What happens to the Pratt Street bricks engraved with personal inscriptions/tributes/memorials that people purchased? Will they be re-installed?

Pratt was born in Peru, New York. In the early 1850s, he designed a milling machine for George S. Lincoln & Company of Hartford, Connecticut, which became the Lincoln miller, in some ways perhaps the most important American machine tool of the late 19th century. Over 150,000 machines were built on this form factor (by many firms).[1]

With Amos Whitney he organized Pratt & Whitney in 1860 to manufacture machine tools, tools for the makers of sewing machines, and gun making machinery for use by the Union Army during the American Civil War. He is credited with being first to permit production of fine gear work. Pratt promoted interchangeable parts and the adoption of a standard system for gages for the United States and Europe. Among several machine-tool patents, his most important was for planing metal granted on July 28, 1869.

He died in Hartford, Connecticut.

Pratt street looked perfectly fine to me. It looked very unique with the bricks. Why not put the money into fixing the pot holes in the city?
I understand this was a past segarra screw job project.
But its pretty sad that we are spending close to 2 million to switch out some bricks. When was that street even done? Maybe 10 years or so ?
What a joke ...

Engraved bricks are on the sidewalk, not the roadway.
