Shippan, Connecticut
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Shippan is a section (or neighborhood) of the city of Stamford, Connecticut.
Shippan is north of Shippan Point, east of the South End, south of Downtown and the East Side, and west of The Cove.
The Shippan area generally runs along Shippan Avenue, Elm Street and the smaller streets nearby. At about the intersection of Shippan Avenue and Magee Avenue, the Shippan Point section starts. On the north, the boundary seems to be about where the Metro-North train tracks go over Elm Street. Somewhere on Myrtle Avenue, the East Side begins, and the boundaries between Shippan, the East Side and the Cove sections are vague.
Cummings Park public beach, St. Mary Roman Catholic Church, and St. Benedict Roman Catholic Church are all in Shippan, along with many small retail businesses and restaurants.
