  Mr. MURPHY of Connecticut. Madam Speaker, it is with great pride that 
I rise today in honor of Heritage Village in Southbury, Connecticut. 
Heritage Village, the largest and oldest condominium complex in the 
Northeast, is currently celebrating its 40th anniversary. For 40 years, 
Heritage Village has stood as a model community for mature living.
  Heritage Village is home to 4,000 residents covering 1,000 acres in 
scenic Southbury. More than just a housing complex, Heritage Village 
combines residential services with a diverse range of activities to 
create an active and wonderfully vibrant community.
  The success and longevity of Heritage Village is a testament to the 
strength of such a tight-knit and active environment. From day one, 
Heritage Village was planned as much more than just a place to live--it 
was designed as a place where activity and opportunity would be 
encouraged and where neighbors caring for each other would define its 
legacy. That mindset, situated in one of the most beautiful settings in 
Connecticut, has allowed Heritage Village to thrive and grow.
  For 40 years, Heritage Village has been a shining example of 
community living, and I know it will continue in that tradition for 
years to come. I am therefore extremely proud to come before my 
colleagues in this House to recognize Heritage Village, its 
administrators, residents, and staff for their contribution to 
Southbury and to the State of Connecticut.
