Danbury Proton is a revolutionary, high-tech, world-class, life-saving proton therapy cancer treatment center that’s coming to Danbury. It’s about a $96 million project using no state funds, that will create about 100 construction jobs for two years, about 30 permanent jobs, generate significant local and state tax revenue, be a remarkable example of “green” building design and operation, and improve the quality, access, R&D capacity and competitive cost-efficiency of Connecticut’s health care system.
