Coltsville Historic District
Coltsville Historic District is a National Historic Landmark District in Hartford, Connecticut. The district encompasses the factory, worker housing, and owner residences associated with Samuel Colt (1814-1862), one of the nation's early innovators in precision manufacturing and the production of firearms. It was the site of important contributions to manufacturing technology made by Colt and the industrial enterprise he created. Coltsville is a cohesive and readily identifiable area, most of which was originally listed as the Colt Industrial District on the National Register of Historic Places in 1976. It was designated a National Historic Landmark in 2008.
After a two decade-long campaign to designate the area as an official National Historic Park, President Barack Obama signed a bill authorizing the Coltsville National Historic Park. The federal authorization lay the groundwork for a "new type of National Park," characterized by a small staff, modest property ownership by the National Park Service and dependence on community partnerships. James Woolsey, the parks service administrator charged with opening the new park, said in June 2015 that the park could be open as soon as the end of the year.
