Monday's Riddle: Metropolis Rising...

Hello, Riddlers! Can you guess our theme this week? This place is full of surprises! ; ) ~ F

Capitol of the Constitution State, sprinkle nutmeg on your plate. A charter hidden in white oak, kept secret from a bloke. History stamps its free mark, take a stroll through Bushnell Park. A city rises, topped in gold; here safety nets are sold. 

Where am I referring to? Stop by Wednesday for the answer. 

I gave you a clue!

  1. Am I dreaming or is there something called the Charter Oak in Connecticut? I’m dredging this up from goodness knows where and have no idea what it even means so I will look forward to hearing more.

  2. The park is in Connecticut, so that must be the answer.

  7. I am largely ignorant of your history. Looking forward to the reveal. And intrigued by the nutmeg reference.

  8. Hartford, Connecticut? And, yes, I cheated with Google's help. ;)

  9. I think I read somewhere that Connecticut was nicknamed the Constitution State because the founding fathers used that state's constitution as a template. Not sure about where Bushnell Park is, but guess I could Google it and expand my geography knowledge. :-)

  14. The first thing I started thinking, which I know is completely wrong, was the Declaration of Independence. Just the paper from trees thing. Honestly, I don't have a clue, but I loved the complexity of the riddle.
