NoDa Mill District Self-Guided Tour

  • When: Friday, July 3, 2020 - All Day Event
  • Location: Start in front of the Johnston YMCA, 3025 N. Davidson Street, NC.

NoDa it’s called now, a hip place for strolling to bars and eateries. But for nearly all of the 20th century this was North Charlotte, a cluster of blue-collar textile mill villages. Highland Park #3 Mill (now a mixed-use project including Heist Brewery) opened in 1903, briefly the biggest cotton factory in North Carolina. More mills and textile-related industries joined it, workers living in company-built housing nearby.
