2025 Street Naming

On Sunday, March 16, 2025 at 1:30 PM we will conduct our annual Greater New Haven St. Patrick’s Day Parade in downtown New Haven, CT. Each year the Parade requests that the City of New Haven rename the streets closest to the reviewing stand at New Haven City Hall and dedicate the renaming in memory of a deceased person who has served the Greater New Haven Irish Community in a positive way. The 2025 street naming is dedicated in honor of this outstanding individual from our Irish community.
