Connecticut General Life Insurance Company Headquarters is a notable building in Bloomfield, Connecticut.

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on January 27, 2010.[1]


The building was designed by Skidmore, Owings and Merrill, on a 280-acre (110 ha) campus, and was completed in 1957. According to the architecture firm, "The bucolic site, campus-like plan, and extensive amenities, including a full service cafeteria and after-hours programs, reflected a desire to offer a highly civilized and satisfying office environment to Connecticut General employees. The building set new standards for flexible space planning, efficiency of operation, economy of construction methods, maintenance programs, and planning for future expansion." The project won various architectural and landscape awards.[2]
