Welcome to
Norwich, the melting pot of a rich culturally
diverse thriving city with a population of
approximately 38,000 offering a wide range of
enterprise and municipal services.
The city of
Norwich known as “The Rose of New England”
provides a lively business atmosphere in an
attractive historic maritime setting with a
beautiful harbor at the convergence of the three
rivers, the Thames, Shetucket and Yantic. Norwich
was voted the most picturesque city in America, and
prides itself on its striking architecture, period
streetscapes, multi-faceted arts community with
several theaters, housing for downtown artists,
galleries, two museums, numerous festivals and an
excellent education environment which includes a

each side of Norwich are two of the world's largest
casinos, Foxwoods/MGM Grand, in Mashantucket, Connecticut and
Mohegan Sun, in Uncasville, Connecticut.
Norwich is
committed to business growth and offers attractive
manufacturing and commercial sites. Our 450-acre
Business Park, situated in a pleasant rural setting
is home to around 40 businesses ranging from
publishing and food distribution to manufacturers of
computer components and much more. The city offers a
solid foundation for new businesses. Downtown
Norwich continues to build on its tradition of
success with the restoration of the historic
Wauregan Hotel and the beautiful expansion of the
Otis Library, as well as, many other buildings that
have been restored and have made prime office space
and housing available.
