Historic Architecture.
Modern Opportunity.
A reimagined historic mill transforming into a modern hub for retailers, makers, and innovative businesses in the heart of Rock Hill, SC.
NOW LEASING:
Retail • Office • Creative Studios • Restaurant Space
Built in 1881 as one of Rock Hill’s most important textile mills, the Cotton Factory helped shape the city’s industrial identity. Powered by steam and known for its iconic brick structure, the building quickly became a cornerstone of early commerce and innovation.
Today, Cotton Factory HQ is being thoughtfully reimagined to preserve the soul of the mill while introducing modern upgrades that support the way businesses work now. Exposed brick walls, heavy timber beams, and oversized arched windows remain central to its character. New improvements add comfort, flexibility, and functionality for retailers, studios, and businesses seeking a one-of-a-kind environment.
The result is a space that honors its past while opening the door to Rock Hill’s next era of creators, entrepreneurs, and community builders.
