The Travellers Tower is headquarters for Travellers Insurance located in Hartford CT. Hartford is known as the insurance capitol of the world due to it’s many insurance companies headquartered there. Flowing by is the CT River which ultimately will pour into Long Island Sound.

The Travellers tower was built in 1919 and, at the time, was the 7th tallest building in the world at 24 stories. Of course, that’s no longer the case.

The large building behind it is City Place which is occupied by United Health Cares world headquarters. You would never know it because of the perspective of the photo but the UHC building is actually 38 stories and currently is CT’s tallest building.
