The New York Belting and Packing Co. complex, also known locally for its main 20th-century occupant, the Fabric Fire Hose Company, is a historic industrial complex at 45-71, 79-89 Glen Road in Newtown, Connecticut. Its centerpiece is a four-story brick mill building with an Italianate tower, built in 1856. The property also includes a dam impounding the adjacent Pootatuck River, a mill pond, and a hydroelectric power generation facility. The site's industrial history begins about 1850, when the dam was built. The New York Belting and Packing Company built the present factory building and another further upstream (no longer extant), where it operated until 1917. The property was then acquired by a subsidiary of Uniroyal, which let the premises to the Fabric Fire Hose Company, its tenant (and later subsidiary as well) until 1977.^[2]

The complex was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on June 2, 1982.^[1]
