Memorandum

The Torin Corporation, formerly the Torrington Manufacturing Company, produced air-moving equipment and had its headquarters in Torrington, CT. There is little additional information in the collection to provide context for this late 1970s design proposal by the Breuer firm. The presentation drawings are nearly identical to the construction drawings for the Torin Corporation, Assembly Plant Lawton, Oklahoma during the same years. According to an article published in The Register Citizen (Litchfield) on the occasion of the plant's demolition, this was the only of the Torin Corp buildings not designed by Marcel Breuer ("A piece of Torrington history is razed," The Register Citizen, 21 Mar 2010).
