A beautiful old feed mill on the bike path.

After renovations were completed in 2019, it now hosts several restaurants, a kombucha brewery, a yoga studio, and (perhaps ironically) a photography studio among others. It also serves as an event center.

  •  Interesting Features
    I liked the courtyard. There were some interesting mushrooms growing on some of the floors.

    As of 2019, it is an event center and artisan food shop. Ian's Pizza has a booth inside, among other local businesses. Some pieces of the original industrial equipment are displayed inside, and a few pieces of inoffensive graffiti were kept as well.

     Future Plans
    Renovations have begun to convert this building into an "artisan food production facility." So far, only the North wing of the building has been extensively modified as of December 2017.

    As of 2019, rennovations are complete and it is open to the public. Supposedly plans are in the works to build fifty free standing hotel rooms adjacent to the the building.
