Title

Blackstone Falls Site

Description

 

The 1840s Blackstone Falls mill complex was turned into 133 units of housing for the elderly. The mill was located on a difficult site: two of its buildings were on an island in the Blackstone River, connected by a series of bridges across a canal. The debris in the river was a result of the mill falling to neglect and ultimately reconstruction.
