State and City officials look for Bayer Replacement

According to a Veteran's Day article in the New Haven Register:

State, regional and city officials will put their heads together to develop a strategy to replace Bayer HealthCare and its 1,000 jobs.

Interesting in the article is that 300-350 of the 1000 employees to be affected will be offered positions in New Jersey - that's a large amount of jobs that will be laid off.

According to all involved, they are hoping to find another biotech company (or two or three) to fill the 125 acre site.
