Construction of the buildings at Greystone Mill began in 1904 and all major components were in place by the end of an extensive expansion campaign completed in 1911.
The site and the surrounding neighborhood are visually dominated by the Main Mill, a five story brick walled building almost 700 ft long that parallels the river on the west side of the property. All of the attached elements of Worcester Mills Artiste share a common and consistent vocabulary of exterior materials and features established by the initial design of the earliest buildings by Providence mill designer/engineer Frank P. Sheldon & Son Company, and as continued through about 1911. |
