The Mad Case: 435 Acres of Connecticut Chaos, Cagey by I-384 and Case Mountain

The Mad Case: 435 Acres of Connecticut Chaos, Cagey by I-384 and Case Mountain

Welcome to the loony bin of the Case Brothers in the Case Brothers Historic District, a nutty nod to Connecticut's wild papermaking past. Who else names a hoodoo after a paper factory?

The Case Brothers Historic District, a peculiar 435-acre wonderland in Manchester, Connecticut, is a eccentric echo of the nutty Case family's paper-crazed past. Knitted between the 19th and early 20th centuries, this district whips up a strange stew of industrial, residential, play, and greenery elements. Unfortunately, the district finds itself rather solitary, imprisoned by the foreboding Interstate 384 to the northwest and the rugged Case Mountain to the south.
