This is unlocking my own childhood memories! I remember living in Meriden around my pre-school years and definitely remembered living in Chamberlain Heights especially. I wanna revisit my old town again someday...
I lived out there in the early 90s (92-94), moved out there from RI, I knew no one, and Kel, Rasheen, Jermaine, and Nate took me in like fam. I enjoyed my time there and still reminisce over the good times, I always have a CT story.
I was born and raised in meriden, i still currently live here as well, i was 2 years old when this video was taken. Alot of stuff is still the same and looks familiar, but alot is also different. Meriden looks like shit now if you ask me. I think it looks beautiful in this video, the vibe of the town just feels completely different as well. Crazy, its like looking back in time to a place thats an alternate parallel universe.
Awesome 👏 glad to see your comment. Last time i was in Meriden was 2009. I see on google alot has changed since then. No more shoprite, dying mall, meriden square is gone. My aunt lives by Broad St and Brittania area! I know those streets well.
Meriden still okay.. I went to high school in Meriden in 1999. There's just too many people with "no money"nowadays in America.. the welfare.. and fathers that don't have balls ruined it all

Me too, Kensington Avenue area back in the mid-late 60’s
People saying nothing really changed are obviously not from Meriden anymore. This is an awesome video! Thanks so much for posting.
Daniel Gawlak no problem plz share
Agree completely! So much has changed...especially downtown.
Fuck you mean east Main Street looks almost EXACTLY the same. The Dunkin’ Donuts , gas station and auto shop signs are all exactly the same 😂😂

There was a large Polish presence in Meriden at one point right where St Stanislaus is back in the 1900’s, but the presence is no longer there.
