History.

A PAWTUCKET ICON.

While the mill complex first began construction in 1889, the historic 5-story preparing mill was originally constructed in 1902 and expanded in 1913 to meet demand. Once completed, this was where the manufacturing process began for the entire mill complex. Historic manufacturers who used the mill began with Hope Webbing Mills, a textile company who built the entire complex and whose work in the 1940’s supporting the war effort included creating the cords used for parachutes by Allied soldiers during World War II. These cords and parachutes were instrumental for major events such as D-Day and Operation Market Garden.

The mill was later sold in the 1950’s to School House Candy, who manufactured a variety of candy such as jelly beans and lollipops all the way through 1998. In 2005 Urban Smart Growth purchased the property with the vision of revitalizing the structure into a wide-ranging community gathering hub filled with a variety of businesses, artists, creatives, and both event and residential space.

The mill was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2006.
