Former U.S. Testing Co. Workers Reunite at Hoboken Historical Museum

The public is invited to a free program this Sunday at the Hoboken Historical Museum where former employees of the U.S. Testing Company will reunite to share workplace tales.

Former employees of the U.S. Testing Company, which for decades operated out of a building at 15th Street and Park Avenue, will reunite this Sunday at the Hoboken Historical Museum to reminisce and share workplace tales for the public.

The old U.S. Testing building at 1415 Park Ave., which served as a parking deck for the past decade before being demolished earlier this year, was used from 1926 to 2000 for testing a wide range of consumer products and commercial equipment.

The free program, "Tales from the Product Testing Lab," begins at 4 p.m.
