Additional Property Attributes

Former Use: A brick industrial building was constructed at this property prior to 1892. Historical records indicate that the first occupant of the property was the River Spinning Co. By 1922, Guerin Mills Inc. occupied the property. Early land use practices at the property consisted of textile processing including dyeing, scouring, and carbonizing wool and other materials. By the 1950s, the property was occupied by the Florence Dye Works, which occupied the proeprty until the mill building was destroyed by fire in 2003. Following the fire, hazardous waste handling contractors were brought to the property to remove hazardous materials that remained at the property. The property was then vacant without any remaining buildings until redevelopment activities commenced in 2008.
