Rocky Mount Mills, Historic cotton mill complex in Rocky Mount, United States.
The Rocky Mount Mills spans 150 acres along the Tar River, featuring industrial buildings converted into modern spaces while maintaining original architectural elements.
Built in 1816 as North Carolina's second cotton mill, the facility employed both enslaved and free Black workers before its destruction during the Civil War.
The mill village contains 101 buildings showcasing Greek Revival and American Craftsman architecture, reflecting the evolution of industrial community design from 1835 to 1948.
The redeveloped complex now houses breweries, restaurants, offices, event spaces, and residential lofts, with rental options in the restored mill village houses.
River and Twine, located within the complex, offers accommodation in 20 tiny house hotels near the future Goat Island recreational development.
