The Glenark Mills or Glenark Landing is a historic mill site on 64 East Street in Woonsocket, Rhode Island. The original stone section of this mill was constructed 1865 by William Norton and was enlarged with a brick addition in 1885. Originally a cotton mill, the building was converted for use as a knitting mill and then as a worsted mill. The building has now been converted to apartments. - Wikipedia
