Harris Mill I TLA Architects

The Harris Mill complex is on the National Register of Historic Places. Built in 1850, Harris Mill is a well-preserved example of stone industrial construction. The complex includes a concrete and masonry-lined headrace and ten buildings, built between 1850 and 1953. The buildings share a common vocabulary of building materials and architectural features common to mid-nineteenth and early-twentieth-century New England textile mill construction including gabled and flat roofs; parged rubble stone and exposed brick walls, and fire-resistive wood and/or steel frame interior construction with sawn and/or hewn timbers. The designer is thought to be noted Providence architect James C. Bucklin, who is best known for his 1828 design of the Providence Arcade. The mill is partially occupied. Thomas Lonardo & Associates has completed drawings for the tax credits application and is currently in the construction documents phase to rehabilitate this historic site as new luxury apartments and retail spaces
