City Trust Apartments (also known as the City Trust Building) is a 165 ft (50 m) tall art deco style mixed-use building located at 955 Main Street in Bridgeport, Connecticut. The building has 10 floors and was built in 1929. The building was designed by the New York City based architectural firm, Dennison & Hirons. It was originally built as a office building. After the Bridgeport City Trust Company failed in 1991, it was renovated and converted into a mixed use building. The building was put up for sale in late 2024. In 2026, it was bought by Abraham Gottesman for $21.5 million. The building is a part of the Bridgeport Downtown South Historic District, which was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1987.

Bridgeport station (Connecticut)
Bridgeport station (Connecticut)

Bridgeport station is a shared Amtrak, Metro-North Railroad, and CTrail train station along the Northeast Corridor serving Bridgeport, Connecticut and nearby towns. On Metro-North, the station is the transfer point between the Waterbury Branch and the main New Haven Line. Amtrak's inter-city Northeast Regional and Vermonter service also stop at the station, as do some CTrail Shore Line East trains. In addition the transfer point for Greater Bridgeport Transit Authority buses, the departure point for the Bridgeport & Port Jefferson Ferry across Long Island Sound to Port Jefferson, New York, and both the Arena at Harbor Yard and the Ballpark at Harbor Yard are located adjacent to the station. Opened in 1975, the current station was designed by the local architectural firm of Antinozzi Associates. Unusually, the station spans the six lanes of Water Street, with the passenger waiting room located over the roadway. The simple concrete facades are scored with vertical lines or channels to create a textured surface. Throughout the day, as the sun rakes across the walls, the channels—of varying depth and width—produce a range of ever-changing shadows. Boxy in appearance and punctuated by rectangular windows, the station's angularity is softened by the rounded edges of the access towers.As of August 2006, average weekday commuter ridership was 3,120 passengers. Bridgeport is the busiest Metro-North station between Stamford and New Haven's Union Station.Shore Line East service west of New Haven was service suspended indefinitely on March 16, 2020, due to the coronavirus pandemic.
