Not far from Manhattan and with more than its fair share of Fortune companies, Stamford is a relatively small city with a huge reputation in business.
Stamford, Connecticut, may be a small city, but it is growing fast and has been doing so for a number of years. Business travellers are coming to Stamford because of a resilience that has seen the city reinvent itself more than once in the last few decades. Originally a blue-collar city which, like so many, saw a decline in its fortunes in the latter part of the twentieth century, Stamford became one of the most successful edge cities of the ninrties, giving it the largest financial district in the New York metropolitan area outside the city of New York itself.
With its economic heart hit hard by the recent financial crisis, one might have expected Stamford to stagnate or decline, yet the city continues to grow, enjoying a surprising residential boom which looks set to make it the second largest city in the state. And all those Fortune five hundred companies haven’t left, either.
Those staying in serviced apartments in Stamford will find the city a wonderful place to stay in with idyllic new developments going up. Downtown Stamford is a vibrant place that has plenty going on, particularly in arts and music, with outdoor events such as the ART SHAPES! outdoor sculpture exhibit held every summer, and also an annual Artwalk .
