The Everett Mills
The Everett Mills are a group of buildings consisting of the Everett and Stone Mills in Lawrence, Massachusetts. A former cotton textile mill, it was the site of the start of the Bread and Roses strike in 1912 〔(Bruce Watson's "Bread and Roses" - 30,000 strikers, 51 nationalities, 2 Months on Strike, Murder, Mayhem, Dynamite )〕 and the former workplace of Robert Frost.
== The Essex Company and Lawrence Machine Shop ==
The Essex Company was founded in 1845. Before the city of Lawrence was even incorporated, the Essex Company laid plans for turning an area of farmland on the Merrimack River into the country’s first planned industrial city. The Essex Company built the Stone Mill, then known as the Lawrence Machine Shop from 1846-1848. It is one of the two oldest mill buildings in the city of Lawrence and one of the few mills ever built out of stone.〔(Lawrence Machine Shop (Everett Mills), Lawrence Massachusetts )〕 It originally housed a forge and a foundry and its purpose was to manufacture and repair the machinery that would be used by the new mill buildings. In the loft of the building, an experimental full set of worsted wool machinery was put together and tested – worsted wool would become one of the signature products of the Lawrence manufacturing industry.
In 1860, the Machine Shop was sold to the Everett Mills which was made up of several industrial buildings (including the precursor to the current Everett Mill building) surrounding the Machine Shop and was converted into a cotton mill. Later the building manufactured locomotives and fire engines.
