The Cove, Stamford, Connecticut

[1] Conservative author and journalist William F. Buckley Jr. was a decades-long resident at Wallack's Point, a small gated community on the shoreline.

It is bordered by the East Side to the north and northeast and by Shippan to the south and southwest.

The neighborhood is closely approximated by census tract 219, which is roughly bounded on the west by Seaside Avenue and the eastern edge of Cummings Park, and on the east by the Darien town line.

[citation needed] The neighborhood is atop and on the eastern and southern slopes of Noroton Hill, which also extends north across Interstate 95 and U.S. Route 1; the latter route, which runs along East Main Street (also known as the Boston Post Road) runs across the ridge, while Interstate 95 cuts across it.

The New Haven Line of the Metro-North Railroad was built around the north side of the Cove.
