In 1957, Ken Olsen and Harlan Anderson started Digital Equipment Corporation in Maynard, Massachusetts. The new company, Digital Equipment Corporation, took over 8,680 square foot leased space in a nineteenth century mill that once produced blankets and uniforms for soldiers who fought in the Civil War. The mill is still in use today as an office park (Clock Tower Place) and among its tenants is the online employment website, Monster.com.
