Winooski Falls Mill District, Industrial historic district in Winooski, Vermont, US.
Winooski Falls Mill District is an industrial complex with textile and paper mills along the Winooski River that spans across both cities. The buildings display industrial architecture features from the 19th and early 20th centuries.
The mills began in the 19th century and became major centers for wool processing in the region. The area was registered as a historic district in 1978 and later expanded.
Former mill buildings now house apartments and shops, showing how old factory structures became active community spaces. This transformation shapes how both riverbanks look and function today.
The area has walking paths along the river that provide easy access to historic buildings and connect the downtowns. Most trails are simple to follow on foot and move through the entire district.
The Champlain Mill from 1912 was a massive employer in its time and processed wool with advanced machinery. This building remains one of the most striking examples of industrial architecture in the area.
