The Canton Cotton Mill was known in the industry for its production of cotton and denim fabrics.

For decades, the Canton Cotton Mill enjoyed success as a manufacturer of cotton fabrics and denim. With the emergence of polyester fabric, production at the Mill declined in the 1960s and 1970s and it closed in 1981.

It is now an apartment community of lofts. For more information, go here.
