Additional Property Attributes

Former Use: The Lincoln Lace & Braid site was established in 1812 as Merino Mill. The complex is located at 55-61 Ponagansett Street in Providence, Rhode Island. The Site is located on approximately 6.0 acres of land adjacent to the Woonasquatucket River in the Hartford section of Providence, designated on the City of Providence Tax Assessor�s Map as Plat 113, Lots 305 and 429. In 1994, the main building of the mill complex was destroyed by fire. Subsequent remediation efforts have removed the building debris as well as petroleum and petroleum-contaminated soil from the Site. Only portions of the ruins of the former Merino Mill and its associated waterpower infrastructure are currently visible.
