Part
of the beauty of the condos in Hillside Place is that the interior
architecture provides unique possibilities for the resident
to decorate within an historical environment. These pictures
show the creativity of a few residents in their magnificent surroundings.

We
hope that these pictures along with the information below
will entice you or someone that you know to consider joining us at
Hillside Place:
There are a total of thirty units.
* Each unit is different in design and
size. The number of bedrooms ranges from one to three. The
size of the units range from 755 sq.ft. to 2,061 sq. ft.;
* There are four floors in both the main
building and annex, with the two middle floors of each connected
by interior walkways (bridge);
* An elevator in the main building connects
all four floors;
* All units and interior common elements
are fully equipped with fire sprinkler system, and a fire
hydrant is between the main building and the east parking area;
* There are four entry doors to the main
building and one entry door to the annex;
* Three units in the main building have
direct entry doors from the outside;
* The building is constructed of brick
with brownstone overlay around the base. As a consequence,
many of the walls are quite thick. Also, many of the ceilings
are quite high, and many nine-foot doors;
* Most, if not all, units have retained
original elements from when the building was the State Normal
School, for example, gorgeous wood and mouldings. And some
have retained elements from when it was the New Britain Board of
Education and School Administration, for example, one unit door
is painted with the sign:
Private
Board of Education
and
School Superintendent
* Many have had recent upgrades and improvements;
* Each unit has its own AC and heat furnace.
* From nearby churches, we (especially those on the east side)
hear Westminster Quarter, hourly bells (but not before 7AM or after
10PM), and carillon music.
