The Greystone Mills have been converted to residential property. The mill and related buildings are part of the Greystone Mill Historic District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The first mill was constructed in 1904, with the rest completed by 1911. It was a mill developed for the wool industry. The mill shut down its operations in 1999 and was converted to lofts in 2007.
