Event One: A Happy Hour
Sneak Peak of the Apartments at historic Revolution Mill
Few projects capture the
imagination as does the Revolution Mill, over 750,000 square feet of historic
flannel mill, once thought to be the largest such processing plant in the
world. Though textile operations ceased long ago, the complex is being
renovated as a mixed-use project that will include offices, art studios,
restaurants - and now apartments! Enjoy Happy Hour with us on Monday, October
13th 5-7pm to preview the new model apartments at Revolution Mill! These units
will highlight the exposed brick walls and large open windows that we love to
see with adaptive reuse projects.
Event Two: Furniture
Market Open House and Silent Auction at historic Market Square
Explore the crafts and home
accessories as a guest of the Antique and Design Center and Preservation Greensboro
on Tuesday, October 21st 3-7pm at Market Square! This opportunity will provide
a chance to enjoy furniture market, purchase items, and bid of a silent auction
to raise funds for historic sites through Preservation Greensboro. Market
Square was one of the first adaptive reuse projects in North Carolina, and one
of the first major projects to emphasize the handmade brick walls and heavy
timber frame construction that remains popular. It was created around 1980 from
the Tomlinson Furniture factory, and today houses home furnishings and
accessories from the region and the world.
