The Preston Laboratories buildings, now a historical site, were once the research complex of Dr. Frank W. Preston, a pioneering glass scientist who moved to the U.S. in 1920. In 1936, he founded Preston Laboratories, focusing on glass durability and quality. The 66-acre site, which originally hosted small farms and woods, became a scenic research hub with labs, a machine shop, and an apartment for the caretaker. The facility operated until 1959, and now, the historic site and park offer a glimpse into the legacy of Dr. Preston and his contributions to the world of glass.
