Magic Carpet Bus

The Magic Carpet Bus is a local bus service in Enfield, Connecticut. The system operates two routes in downtown Enfield and provides transfer to CT Transit service to Hartford. ADA paratransit is also operated as part of the Magic Carpet system within .75 miles of its routes. Starting in the 1990s Enfield had local bus service in the form of PVTA Route Red 16, which originated in Springfield and continued down to Enfield center and Asnuntuck Community College. In 2002 the route was cancelled, as the town of Enfield was unable to pay the $70,000 PVTA required of it that year. Between 2002 and 2012 Enfield was served by only two public bus routes. One route was run by CT Transit (Route 5; now 905) and the other by PVTA (Route G5), with both meeting at the Enfield MassMutual office. With a grant from the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development received by the Capitol Region Council of Governments, a report regarding public transport in Enfield was created in 2012. From this report, it was concluded that two local bus routes be created, each following a similar route in opposing directions of one another. Magic Carpet service began in January 2013 and operates on two routes, the Blue Line and the Yellow Line. Blue Line service typically begins at 7 AM and ends at 11 PM and Yellow Line service typically begins at 7:30 AM and ends at 6:30 PM, Monday through Friday. The Blue Line also operates 7 AM to 9 PM on Saturday.

Longmeadow Historic District
Longmeadow Historic District

The Longmeadow Historic District is a historic district encompassing the village green of Longmeadow, Massachusetts and properties in its immediate vicinity. The district acquired local protection in 1973 and was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.Longmeadow's village green was laid out in the early 18th century, and it is the area around which the town center developed. It is located on a sandy ridge on a terrace about 1 mile (1.6 km) east of the Connecticut River, with a flood plain in between that now also carries Interstate 91. The green is a long park running north–south between Ely and Birnie Roads, with the main travel lanes of Longmeadow Street (United States Route 5) on the west side and an access road (also designated Longmeadow Street) on the east side. The green is mainly grassy, and is lined with mature trees. Its only significant man-made structure is the town's war memorial, placed in 1931.The green historically saw a variety of uses, and was only formally turned into a park late in the 19th century. The buildings that face the green for the most part date from the 18th and 19th centuries; the principal 20th century structures are the public library building (a brick Colonial Revival structure built in 1932), Town Hall (1930), and the Center School (built 1928, modern annex added in the 1950s). The Old Country Store (1805) is the only commercial building in the district, and there is only one church, the First Congregational (1768). The oldest house (of more than 40 in the district) dates to 1725, while the latest date to the 1910s. The district was named as one of the 1,000 places to visit in Massachusetts by the Great Places in Massachusetts Commission.
