Show Notes
New Britain, Connecticut, known as Hardware City, faces the closure of its last hardware factory, Stanley Black and Deckers Myrtle Street plant. The decline in demand for single-sided tape measures, once prized for accuracy, has led to this end. The city, once famous for tools and manufacturing, now looks to reinvent itself amidst job losses and plant closures in other U.S. states.
