TECH CITY IS FADING IN DEC 2016
This is the former IBM KINGSTON site open in 1955 with buildings from then to the mid 1980's built here but it closed in 1995 laying off or moving over 7000 people and then in 1998 the site was renamed TECH CITY in hopes of reusing the site but over the years there was some success but not enough to make a big difference and some of those jobs also moved out and in the last year or so some buildings began to be demolished and turned into recyclable materials that large building here was built in 1984 and is in great shape so I hope it stays.
