Looks like we might be looking at a northeast bookend to Mt. Trashmore if things go according to plan. I've contacted the local authorities and will be following up.

Slightly less magnificent is the current state of the massive landfill along I-91 in Hartford. But the dump is slated to be closed for good at the end of next year.

Many ideas for the use of the site after that date have centered on recreation. The dump, once properly capped, could accommodate basketball courts, a skateboard park, a dog park, or walking and hiking trails.

"It's a beautiful location," said Paul Nonnenmacher, a spokesman for the Connecticut Resources Recovery Authority, which runs the dump. "There is a lot of potential there for things like hiking trials, or maybe a fitness trail - some type of passive recreational use."
