The building
Inside Highland Mill Lofts
Highland Mill Lofts is one of the district's mill or warehouse conversions, trading on original industrial character rather than new-build finishes.
The building dates to 1903 mill, converted early 2000s, and its conversion preserved heavy-timber framing, exposed brick, and oversized industrial windows, with mechanical systems updated for residential use during the renovation.
It suits renters or owners who want character architecture and don't mind trade-offs like street noise or limited parking that come with older structures.
Before you commit
Every building in this district carries its own set of questions. These are the ones we would ask first at Highland Mill Lofts.
- have the historic windows and envelope inspected for air/water sealing
- confirm HVAC was updated during conversion, not original to the mill
- ask about noise transfer from exposed structure and hard-surface finishes
Mix of for-sale and for-rent units depending on the building; confirm current tenure and HOA structure with the listing agent or association.
