Description
The Collinsville section of Canton, Connecticut is a factory town in New England. Listed as one of "America's 10 Coolest Small Towns" in Arthur Frommer's Budget Travel Magazine.
In 1826, Samuel Watkinson Collins, age 24, his brother David, age 21, and their wealthy cousin, William Wells purchased a sawmill property along the Farmington River and began mass producing high quality axes and selling them wholesale throughout the world. The Collins product line grew to include 1,300 types of edge tools.
In 1966, after 140 years in business, the Collins Company closed its doors. Today, the remaining factory buildings are leased by a variety of tenants, including a multi-dealer antiques company, offices, artist studios, and woodworkers. The former rail line, which Sam Collins brought to Town in 1850, has been converted to a walking and biking trail which connects to several neighboring towns in Farmington river Valley.
This is a high quality panoramic image combined from 10 photographs, and will look great on prints of up to 72x30 inches in size!
