Chalmers Knitting Mills, Historic textile factory in Amsterdam, New York, United States.

The L-shaped industrial complex consisted of a four-story brick building from 1913 and a seven-story concrete addition completed in 1916.

The mill specialized in manufacturing men's undergarments using Porosknit fabric technology, producing over 15,000 pairs daily during its peak operations.

The factory represented industrial development along the Mohawk River, contributing to Amsterdam's identity as a textile manufacturing center in the early 1900s.

The facility operated continuously under Chalmers management until 1959, after which smaller industrial companies utilized the space before its eventual demolition.

The mill secured government contracts during World War I to supply undergarments for military personnel, marking a significant period in its manufacturing history.
