Groton Laboratories
Located on the southeastern Connecticut seashore in a historical New England vacation area known for its seafood, easy pace of living, and nautically related recreational activities.
Groton Laboratories is the largest Pfizer R&D site, located within reasonable driving distance to a wealth of greater academic institutions, and within a couple of hours of Boston and New York.
In June 2000, Pfizer opened "the Building 220 Discovery Labs" at the Groton site. This state-of-the-art pharmaceutical research facility, the largest of its kind in the world, hosts more than 700 scientists and is a major component of Pfizer's R&D capabilities.
New London Headquarters
Located on the southeastern Connecticut seashore in a historical New England vacation area known for its seafood, easy pace of living, and nautically related recreational activities.
In addition to senior management of the Research & Development division, the New London Headquarters facility serves as the center for the company's global development team, responsible for demonstrating the effectiveness and safety of drugs through clinical trials.
As part of environmental remediation of the property, Pfizer worked with state and federal agencies to restore the tidal wetland adjacent to the peninsula. Once a repository for run-off from a neighboring scrap metals yard, the salt marsh today is a viable habitat for aquatic wildlife. Its restoration continues as a model for public/private community educational programs.
