Mill No. 2
Narragansett Mills is an historic textile mill site located at 1567 N. Main Street in Fall River, Massachusetts, United States.
The mills were organized in 1871, and the first mill was built in 1872 from red brick in the Italianate style. A. Dorrance Easton served as the company's first president.[2] The complex also includes a detached brick mill office building.
The site was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.
Today, Mill No. 1 has been remodeled and is occupied by medical offices.[3] In December 2011, the second floor and roof of Mill No. 2 was removed.
