Thursday, February 15, 2024, 7:30pm – “The Keating Building: A Middletown Success Story” free online screening

Join us on Thursday, February 15 at 7:30pm for a free online screening of a documentary film by Peter Oberc. “The Keating Building: A Middletown Success Story” is the story of the 127-year history of the building at 180 Johnson Street, where Robert Keating made the first electric bicycles and the first motorcycles. It was later the home of the Remington Rand Noiseless Typewriter Company, then a defense plant in World War II and a early computer factory in the 1950s. After decades of neglect, the City of Middletown revitalized the building and it is enjoying a new life.
