Looking for websites for roomsharing

Hi everyone,

I am planning to move to Norwalk area for work starting October, and I'm having a tough time finding a room for myself so I'm wondering if there is any other platform I could use to find roommates. Thanks in advance.

Italian restaurants

Hello, my wife and I are coming into town for our anniversary and short baby moon. My wife loves Italian food and I was wondering if there is any that are either a legendary place in town or nearby or a place that makes their own pasta?

Any community groups?

Are there any community groups to meet new people/start a new hobby? I’m not new to the area, but did not grow up here so I find it hard to make friends. Anything for the newly 30 yr olds? Not looking for a singles group as I am married as well. Hubby is from the area & I like sharing his friends, but also want my own. Not a drinker but definitely a smoker lol any apps? Fb groups? Etc

TIA

What’s the deal with the parking lot by the new mall?

Am I the only one? Feels like a n accident waiting to happen! Under marked with signage or directories! Took 15 minutes to find a restaurant (Finally a kind stranger told me it was on the roof). Then off to Costco to pick up at the pharmacy. Again another parking lot from hell! City planners YOU BLEW IT!

What’s the deal with the East Ave Rite Aid?

I live close so I’m there pretty often, but every single time I’m in there most of the shelves are 90% empty. It literally looks like a hurricane is about to hit every single time I’m in there. It seems like it’s neglected by Rite Aid corporate or something. I don’t know how that store can even be profitable with so little on the shelves. You’d think if it was empty all the time they would just close the store, but it’s still here and doesn’t seem like it’s going anywhere.

Anyone interested in playing the new Mario Party when it comes out?

Was thinking of seeing if I could set it up at the library or some other space, sometime after release.

Anyone generally into games/nerd stuff and looking for others to meet up with? Most of my friends live so far.

Harbourside SoNo

Does anyone have any feedback on the Harbourside SoNo building? I’ve looked through a lot of places in Stamford and a few in Norwalk and like that one with a balcony and it seems quieter than some. I know water street can flood but it seemed like with the garage entrance on the other side you can get in and out okay during the heavy rain. Appreciate you all!

Appetite for a Norwalk subreddit meetup?

Forgive me if I'm out of the loop on ongoing meetup efforts.

Curious if there is any appetite for an /r/norwalk member meetup?

As to where, I'm open to suggestions but I know Blind Rhino has a lot of bar space, Eco Evolution is good too if we're looking for a non-alcohol-focused place (has a cafe)...

Ceramics studio?

Hey everyone, new to Norwalk as of last week and wanting to spread some roots. Only moved to CT from Seattle last year to take care of a family member with cancer so still very new to CT, but wanting to explore more and find myself a community.

I’m wondering if anyone knows of any local(ish) ceramic studios where I could either come to use the wheel or a class of some kind to meet people, work on whatever I’d like, use a kiln, etc. on a weekly basis

I’d love it if it were somewhat affordable, but also I understand you get what you pay for.

And if not ceramics, I’d even be willing to learn how to paint or jewelry, whatever. Just want a place where I can work with my hands and meet some cool people. Thanks!

Looking for a place to host a small group

Hey yall, idk if this is the typical post of this area, but I'm hosting a first physical meeting with a DnD group I put together. I spend a decent amount of time in Norwalk but I can't say I know any good places to be left alone and not bother anyone for a few hours. The college and public library came to mind, but I'm not a student there and the library closes early on weekends. Any recommendations?

Chestnut Street One-Way issues

Perhaps a bit more of a niche complaint, but I'm confused on the time frame for the one-way on Chestnut Street.

From my understanding, it was temporarily done to support construction on underground utilities. That said, I have found myself going the "wrong way" when there is no construction going on and literally getting yelled at by other people. I live on this street and the detour just to get to go northbound (I-95, mall, etc) requires 4 additional turns, 3 additional stop signs and a horribly-timed light with no turn on red.

Did I miss something and this one-way became permanent? Chestnut was originally a two-way road, how is it suddenly too narrow for people now?
