Additional Property Attributes

Redevelopment Parcel #1 consists of approximately 4.6 acres and encompasses the southern portion of the former Facemate property. It includes former Facemate Building C (known as the Baskin Building), a rectangular brick warehouse building consisting of two (2) levels. Dimensions are approximately 146 feet by 38 feet with a finished space of approximately 11,000 square feet. The property is currently vacant as the City continues to prepare the parcel for redevelopment.

Former Use: The Former Facemate Corporation property consisted of two parcels totaling approximately 20.2 acres and was developed in the early 1800s for the manufacture of textiles. Between 1823 and 1915 the Site was owned by the Chicopee Manufacturing Company which manufactured and processed cotton cloth. The property was bought by Johnson & Johnson in 1915, who continued production activities. In 1977, the property was purchased by Facemate Corporation, which produced finished cotton and synthetic cloth. Facemate Corporation was forced to shut down in 2003 due to bankruptcy and foreclosure proceedings. The City completed approximately $6 million dollars in site-wide demolition and remediation work during summer and fall of 2013. Additionally, the City has completed an ALTA/ACSM Land Title Survey and Subdivision Plans for the property to create three re-development parcels. The middle parcel has already been redeveloped as RiverMills Center - the City's new Senior Center. Redevelopment Parcel #1 consists of approximately 4.6 acres and encompasses the southern portion of the former Facemate property. It includes former Facemate Building C (known as the Baskin Building), a rectangular brick warehouse building consisting of two (2) levels. Dimensions are approximately 146 feet by 38 feet with a finished space of approximately 11,000 square feet. The property is currently vacant as the City continues to prepare the parcel for redevelopment.
