Brandon Mill

Brandon Mill, located in Greenville, South Carolina, was originally built in 1901. Over the years, the building has been an integral part of Greenville’s textile industry, originally serving as a major cotton mill founded by J. Irving Westervelt. The mill rapidly expanded in the early 20th century, growing from 10,000 spindles and 400 looms to 86,000 spindles by 1916. It played a significant role in the economic development of the region, supporting a thriving mill village and community. Now repurposed, it serves as a mixed-use development, preserving its historic charm while offering 13,000 square feet of ground-floor retail space and 181 Class A market-rate apartments. The apartments feature loft-style open floor plans with 18-foot exposed ceilings, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and custom wood cabinetry. Through the South Carolina Historic Rehabilitation and Abandoned Building Tax Credits, Brandon Mill supports the growth and well-being of the Greenville community, ensuring its legacy remains a vital part of the city’s future.
