Situated along both sides of the Dan River in downtown Danville, the Mill Historic District is filled with important buildings in the industrial heritage of this southern manufacturing city. The Riverside Division buildings of Dan River Inc. represent several stages in the century long development of one of America’s major textile companies, including the firm’s first cotton mill at the corner of Main and Bridge streets in downtown Danville. Major architectural styles range from the relatively small brick vernacular mills and outbuildings of the “cotton factory fever” of the 1880s and 1890s to the massive concrete modernist structures of the 1920s.

Directions:
