If this house could talk, what secrets would it tell you about its history?
A century ago, these textile mill buildings were driving the economic growth of North Adams, providing hundreds of jobs and hope for workers pursuing the American dream. Now, this campus is a microcosm of a regional renaissance, and the thoughtful restoration pays homage to a rich history that forged memories across generations. In loft 401, the belt drums from the original hydro-powered infrastructure remain mounted under the 16-foot-high ceiling. In loft 210, decommissioned elevator cables and pulleys frame the kitchen island. The original winding stair of the north tower has been reconfigured with steel to frame an open central atrium with a custom 65-foot-tall light fixture comprised of 25 bulbs cascading down from the common roof terrace. The original window sashes, which were removed to make way for giant triple-pane high performance windows, have been repurposed as backlit ambient light elements lining a corridor wall. The painted heavy timber columns have been painstakingly scraped to expose a gradient of colors, each post becoming a one-of-a-kind mottled composition of “found art.” The old-growth long-leaf pine flooring has been restored, and at each location where a deep trace of history left its mark, a custom steel plate has been set flush with the wood’s surface, creating a new pattern of timeless materials.
The character of space in this project speaks for itself. It’s full of pride and integrity, and its authenticity is irreplaceable.
