Property Highlights

Former Use: The encompassess approximately 3.1 acreas and was originally developed circa 1895 as the Upper Mill of the Sherman & Company Leather board Factory. Mason Dam was constructed at that time and utilized for hydroelectric power generation for the factory until a majority of former Site buildings were destroyed by a fire that occurred at the Site in 1944. The Site was then utilized solely for hydroelectric power generation until 2009 and has remained vacant to the present date. The Site is currently improved with one building (the �Turbine House�), which contains two turbines and generators that were formerly utilized for hydroelectric power generation. The Site is also improved with a crushed gravel driveway/parking area, a dug-channel tail race, and a snowmobile/ATV trail and wooden bridge. Remaining portions of the Site consist of undeveloped wooded land and/or overgrown vegetated land. The Site is currently serviced with electricity and municipal water is available to the Site.
