Town of Greenwich Department of Public Works (DPW) celebrated the successful completion of the Wesskum Wood Road Bridge project today with a ribbon-cutting ceremony at Binney Park, adjacent to the newly constructed bridge.
The Wesskum Wood Road Bridge, originally built in 1950, required a full replacement due to significant wear and tear. In addition to the bridge replacement, the project introduced several enhancements to improve safety, accessibility, and aesthetics. Notable upgrades include:
- Decorative crosswalks
- A sidewalk along the bridge interior
- A path connecting to the Binney Park trail
ADA-compliant pedestrian ramps
- A widened roadway shoulder to better accommodate bicyclists
- The new design preserves the original aesthetic by utilizing natural stones with deep joints and a flat capstone, seamlessly blending with the park's scenic surroundings. Additionally, new landscaping harmonizes the bridge with Binney Park's natural beauty.

In anticipation of the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence in 2026, Greenwich Historical Society presents a dynamic exhibition that takes a fresh look at the impact of the Revolutionary War on Greenwich and surrounding communities. Greenwich During the Revolutionary War: A Frontier Town on the Front Line explores the dangers and shifting loyalties for a border town and its citizens during the war for independence.
The exhibition is on view in the Frank Family Foundation Special Exhibitions Gallery through March 9, 2025.
After the Battles of Lexington and Concord, the Revolutionary War soon spread to Connecticut, particularly Fairfield County and Greenwich, the gateway to patriotic New England. With their safety and livelihood at risk, residents had to choose whether to support American independence, to remain loyal to King George III, or to claim neutrality. This exhibition tells the story of the people of Greenwich who were living, working, fighting, fleeing and dying on the front line.
Documents and relics handed down through the generations include meticulously preserved letters and diaries that provide a moving tribute to the trauma and hardships they endured for the cause of liberty and freedom. A bullet ridden jacket worn by Greenwich’s Obadiah Mead when he was shot and killed in 1779 is particularly poignant.
