South Norwalk: is a neighborhood and the Second Taxing District in Norwalk, Connecticut. The neighborhood was originally a settlement called 'Old Well' which became chartered as the city of 'South Norwalk' on August 18, 1870. The cities of Norwalk and South Norwalk were incorporated on June 6, 1913. Often referred to with the acronym 'SoNo' (redeveloped area).〔The Free Dictionary: SoNo http://acronyms.thefreedictionary.com/South+Norwalk,+Connecticut〕 "The term 'SoNo' refers to the formerly rundown stretch of Washington Street between the Metro-North Railroad tracks and Norwalk Harbor". SoNo South encompasses what state Rep.Joseph Mann, a Democrat who lives and works in the neighborhood, yesterday (2, 2004 ) called "the real South Norwalk" -- the heavily minority, middle- to lower-class residential and industrial neighborhoods bordered on the north and south by Washington and Concord streets, and on the east and west by Water Street and Martin Luther King Drive."〔Keeping the "real South Norwalk alive", The Norwalk Advocate, By Brian Lockhart, Staff Writer http://jemann.com/realsono.html〕 "SoNo, with its delightful mixture of classy and tasteful or just plain homey restaurants, shops, and clubs, combined with museums and galleries, has become integrated with greater Norwalk as well as the harbor and Long Island Sound beyond. SoNo is anchored by the Maritime Center,(Maritime Aquarium at Norwalk ) which invites visitors of all ages to become immersed in sea life. Exhibits, educational programs, research cruises, and a boat building shop, are topped off by the spectacular IMAX Theatre".〔CT Dining and Events Guide http://www.ctdiningandeventsguide.com/towns/fairfield_county/historicsono.php〕〔2 N Main St Norwalk, Connecticut Street View - Aug 2014 Google maps https://www.google.com/maps/@41.0990733,-73.4188233,3a,75y,114.7h,64.2t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sd18quysVvK5OZdm-p44vdQ!2e0!7i13312!8i6656?hl=en〕 ==South Norwalk Boundaries== South Norwalk, or Norwalk 2nd Taxing District, borders are as follows:〔Norwalk Tax District Map http://www.norwalkct.org/DocumentCenter/View/4745〕 * North: From Connecticut Ave. near I95 exit 14 through Mathews Park to the Norwalk River. * South: from Windsor Place on a line to South Main St. near the intersection of Meadow St. and on a line to Norwalk River. * East: Through Norwalk River. * West: From Connecticut Ave. near I95 exit 14 on a line to Windsor Place. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「South Norwalk」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
