Rich in history, the land encompassing the Lake Success Eco Business Park in Bridgeport and Stratford, Connecticut played a key role in the industrial revolution of the early twentieth century. From 1905 until 1989, Remington Arms used the Lake Success property to manufacture and test large- and small-caliber munitions. Today, the property is under the ownership of Sporting Goods Properties, Inc., a subsidiary of Corteva Agriscience, the successor to DuPont and Remington Arms.
