Additional Property Attributes

The former Savage Arms property has a long history of industrial use that stretches to the late 1800's. Around 1885, the Site was operated as the B. and J. Belcher Agricultural Works which operated a foundry, storage house, grinding room and coal shed. Between 1885 and 1891, Taylor and Gale Agricultural Works took ownership of the property. Circa 1896, A.D. Spaulding & Brothers owned the property and utilized the buildings for the manufacturing of bicycles. In 1902, the Lamb Knitting Machine Company operated the buildings on site. By 1910, automobiles were manufactured on the western portion of the Site by the Stevens-Duryea Automobile Company. In 1915, the New England Westinghouse Company manufactured rifles on a portion of the Site. J. Stevens Arms, a division of Savage Arms Corporation obtained ownership of all buildings by approximately 1950. The Site was converted from a factory to lofts prior to 1967, when James G. Cayon took ownership of the property. A fire in 1967 destroyed the majority of buildings. Chico Realty Trust obtained ownership of the property in 1961 and William J. Stetson et. ux. obtained ownership in 2015. Since the fire, the property has remained substantially vacant - it was reported that the fire-damaged structures were demolished into existing foundations and covered with fill. The Site has been overgrown with vegetation likely since the demolition and filling was completed.
