Barry Square

|||
| Barry Square is one of Hartford's oldest neighborhoods. It takes its name from Father Michael Barry, whose Irish Catholic parish built St. Augustine Church there is 1902. This area contains Trinity College and the Institute of Living. Trinity College, founded in 1832, is a highly regarded liberal arts college. Trinity has a very attractive campus on the site of what was previously known as Zion Hill. The Institute of Living, founded in 1822, is one of the oldest psychiatric treatment facilities in the country. Pioneer landscape architect Frederick Law Olmstead, a Hartford native, laid out the grounds as a park-like campus in 1862. |
