Additional Property Attributes

Phase II activities also included the preparation of a Site-Specific Quality Assurance Project Plan SSQAPP and a Hazardous Materials Inventory HMI. Redevelopment is currently occuring in phases. The first phase of redevelopment brought a new, 12,000-square-foot hardware and sporting goods store to the Town of Milo and reused existing downtown infrastructure while preserving undeveloped land. First phase of redevelopment also created over five full-time jobs. Once complete, Phase I and Phase II redevelopment proposed commercial greenhouses will likely leverage over 250,000 in private redevelopment funding.

Former Use: The Site is encompassing roughly 27 acres located on West Main Street in the Town of Milo, Piscataquis County, Maine. The Site is identified as Tax Map 17, Lot 54. The Site is currently improved with five buildings, the largest of which is a two-story structure, constructed circa 1900, which has historically served as the primary manufacturing building at the Site. Other structures at the Site include the �First Aid Building�, the �Red Building� former mechanical shop/storage, One-Bay Garage, and a Brick Building former garage. In addition, the foundations of six former structures, referred to on historical maps as �dry sheds� are located on the southern portion of the property. Based on available information, the Site consisted of unimproved land prior to circa 1900. The Main Building was constructed circa 1900, and operated as American Thread Company for manufacture of wooden spools for thread and yarn, until 1976. The facility was reportedly occupied by Basketville Inc. manufacturers of wooden baskets from 1976 until 1988. The property was then occupied by Ox-Yoke Originals, specializing in firearm cleaning products, lubricants, ammunition, and other accessories, until April 2005. The basement of the Main Building was reportedly used as a test firing range while occupied by Ox-Yoke. The Site has reportedly been vacant since Ox-Yoke ceased operations in April 2005. In 2010, Razor Rock, LLC redeveloped the main mill building into the new 12,000 square-foot Three Rivers Hardware Store First Phase of Site redevelopment.
