    1. ​White City is a product of Waterbury's manufacturing ingenuity; a major factory, Scovill Manufacturing, recognized the desire for it's employees to become homeowners and, therefore, in exchange for lower wages, employees were furnished with homes.  Each of the homes, which were all located in close geographic proximity to each other, were painted white.  Therefore, this neighborhood, which grew from nothing to saturation of the area in a short period of time, became known as White City.
