Danbury is situated on the western border of Connecticut right next to New York State. The city (and it’s current team’s name) is known as the “Hat City” due to the cities history in the hat making industry during the 19th century when they were a leading producer of hats at the time. Today, Danbury offers citizens and guests alike with a wide mix of activities. These range from local restaurants all the way to the cities several museums and adventure parks. With Danbury being located just 50 miles north of New York City, it’s well worth a trip down to the Big Apple from time to time while you’re here.
Many years ago, Danbury was known around the country as the “Hat City.” We touched on this briefly in our about the city (off the ice) section above, but it’s worth touching on a bit further here since this played a big role in Danbury’s history and economy during that time. During the 19th century, Danbury was one of the biggest producers of hats and the factories here supplied hats to people around the world. Now when look at the current teams logo wearing a top hat, you now understand the tie to the city a bit more.
