Why are WE called Still River Editions?

The Still River flows behind our location in downtown Danbury, CT. The Still River has played an important role in the city’s famous hat industry and lore, and is now a symbol of both change and persistence. We are located on the spot where the L.H. Johnson & Company Hat Manufactory stood. Our current parking lot is filled with bricks from the original building’s foundation used as fill.
