Discover New Britain

New Britain was settled in 1687 and incorporated as a parish, the New Britain Society, in 1754. Separating from the neighboring towns of Farmington and Berlin, it was chartered as a town in 1850 and as a city in 1871, and a consolidation charter followed in 1905. The New Britain Normal School trained teachers, moved to its present site on Stanley Street in 1922 and grew into Central Connecticut State University.

More about New Britain

The city became home to major manufacturers, including the Stanley Works, P. and F. Corbin, founded in 1848 and later Corbin Locks, Landers, Frary and Clark, founded in 1842, the Union Manufacturing Company, founded in 1866, and North and Judd, and in the early 20th century it was known as the Hardware Capital of the World, or Hardware City. In 1843 Frederick Trent Stanley opened Stanley's Bolt Manufactory to make door bolts and other wrought-iron hardware, and in 1857 his cousin Henry Stanley founded the Stanley Rule and Level Company, whose planes, invented by Leonard Bailey, were prized by woodworkers. The two companies merged in 1920. The wire coat hanger was invented in New Britain in 1869 by O. A. North, the basketball technique of dribbling was developed at the New Britain YMCA in 1895, and racquetball was developed at the same YMCA in 1954. A monument to the city's Civil War veterans was dedicated in 1900. Sources Wikipedia: New Britain, Connecticut
