Manchester CT Community Profile & History
Manchester, Connecticut is an industrial suburb of Hartford in central Connecticut. Today, Manchester serves as headquarters for several major financial services companies. The community is also home to several defense and aerospace firms, prominent among the high technology and skilled industries of the region.
Founded in 1672, Manchester boasts a long history as a leader of industry in New England. In 1838, the Cheney family established what would eventually become the world's largest silk mill. Over the next few years mills were established along Hop Brook before the emergence of steam power prompted growth in the area north of Hartford Road. Today several of the brick mill buildings still stand as part of the Cheney Brothers National Historic Landmark District, established in 1978.
Manchester has evolved into a small city and a service, retail, employment and residential center for the eastern part of the Hartford region. The community offers a central business district, four shopping districts and three industrial parks. Manchester has a reputation for quality municipal services and is an ideal location for businesses and new residents.
