Whitey Heist Park
An integral part of UConn Stamford, the Whitey Heist Park provides a respite from classes and studying for our students, faculty, and staff. The park is named in honor of L.C. “Whitey” Heist who led the initiative to establish UConn Stamford in downtown Stamford. He was President of Champion International Corporation (now part of International Paper), a Stamford-based corporation that believed companies have a responsibility to their community.
Located within the park is a bronze sculpture called 'Rippawam' by Jim Sanborn that links Stamford’s past and future. 26 feet long, the sculpture is made from rolled copper and features Native American text with English translation.
