I hope that this guide helps to make your time in New Britain more engaging. As you explore the pages that follow, one thing will become unmistakably clear: New Britain is a unique community, full of diverse and deeply-rooted cultures and, of course, wonderful people. Our economy, arts, food, and civic life all reflect our breadth of shared experiences and ethnicities, and have made us a stronger and more vibrant community as a result. New Britain has long been known as “The Hardware City.” Throughout the 20th century, our economy was anchored by large-scale manufacturing. Companies like The Stanley Works, American Hardware, Fafnir Bearing and Corbin-Russwin all called New Britain home. But as times & technology changed, and manufacturing began leaving the northeast, our economy suffered the same fate as many old factory towns in New England. Today, New Britain is a City is experiencing a rebirth with the opening of new businesses and the completion of infrastructure projects like the Beehive Bridge and our award-winning Complete Streets Masterplan.

  • Bees Vs Sea Unicorns Recap 5/26/21
    Ben Berg | Beat Writer | @bergywergy3030 | 5/26/21 Bees win Opening Day marathon over Sea Unicorns after epic rally in 6th inning This Wednesday, May 26 was opening day of the 2021 New Britain Bees season, and with fans back in New Britain Stadium at full capacity for the first time since 2019, the hive was buzzing all night; and the night was long. The Bees hosted the Norwich Sea Unicorns as one of the three new teams in the Futures Collegiate Baseball League of New England and, fortunately for the fans, the Bees overcame an early 5-run deficit to emerge victorious. They won by a final score of 11-6 to start the season with an important victory. Much to the delight of the crowd, the Bees struck first offensively. In the second inning, Bees’ designated hitter Andrew Cain reached base on a fielder’s choice, then shortstop Jack Reardon stroked a double to right field off Norwich starter Gary Costello that sent Cain to third base. Luckily for New Britain, a throwing error and some heads-up baserunning allowed Cain to cross home plate and take the early 1-0 lead. After retiring the first eight batters he faced, Bees’ starter Dawson Logie let up a bloop single to third-baseman James Dolan with 2 outs in the third inning that would foreshadow the turning point of the evening for Logie. From there, Logie (and two fielding errors behind him) allowed the next seven Norwich players to reach base safely. By the end of the third inning, Logie had surrendered 5 hits, 2 walks and 6 total runs (4 earned), all with 2 outs.
