I thought of these five because they are all near water. The soothing sound of water cascading down the side of a fountain, or the lapping waves of the ocean is so relaxing. Three of the five are in big cities in Connecticut, because the shoreline doesn't have an exclusive right to moments of solitude and regret. If you're mulling sending your kid to public school instead of private, should you leave your family for your new girlfriend, or if it's finally time to leave your job, check these five quiet benches, it might help.
