A Brief History of Northampton

Originally established due to the rich limestone concentration in the area, Northampton was home to the largest cement company in the world at one time: the Atlas Portland Cement Company. Founded in 1895, the company still existed as recently as 1982, and was a major contributor in the construction of the Panama Canal, producing 8 million barrels of cement for the effort. The last smokestacks were demolished in 1993, and today there's a museum that commemorates the company and its role in the region.
