General Henry Knox, as Washington’s chief of artillery, was primarily responsible for the selection of potential arsenal sites. Among the locations considered were Carlisle, Pennsylvania; Hartford, Connecticut; and Brookfield, Massachusetts. Ultimately, Knox recommended Springfield, Massachusetts, as the ideal location. Knox Springfield!
