Remember when a plan was announced in 2016 to develop Judson Mill into a hub of offices, apartments + a possible grocery store? That idea may be coming to life soon.

Judson Mill, which was put on the market for $8.5 million in 2015, was sold to Belmont Sayre (doing business as Judson Mill Ventures, LLC) from Spartanburg-based Millikin & Company as an opportunity to redevelop the building. The West Greenville facility was previously used to produce textiles until it closed in 2015.

The buyers plan to turn half of the approximately 800,000 sq. ft. building into residential space and the other half will be mixed-use (which could mean anything from retail to offices).

The North Carolina company specializes in renovating historic spaces and using them to boost the local community, especially in lower-income areas.
