Two Coastal Settings, More Possibilities

Stratford and Bridgeport each offer a connection to Connecticut’s shoreline. Stratford sits along Long Island Sound, with the Housatonic River forming its eastern boundary. Its waterfront is an important part of the town’s character, giving your apartment search a regional setting shaped by the water.

At The August, the harbor becomes the backdrop for home, while Stratford remains a neighboring destination to explore. You can consider both places as part of your routine, choosing a residence for the experience it offers inside and the possibilities beyond its doors.

For an afternoon in Stratford, consider these destinations:

  • Boothe Memorial Park and Museum: About 15–25 minutes by car from The August. Explore a setting known for its historic buildings, gardens, and local heritage. Museum access and programs vary by schedule.

  • Short Beach: About 15–25 minutes by car from The August. Plan time by the shoreline, checking the town’s current seasonal access and nonresident parking requirements before your visit.

Driving times are approximate planning estimates and vary with traffic, route, and conditions.

These outings can become part of a weekend without defining every day. Return to your own surroundings, settle into the evening, and let the next day take shape at your pace.
