Lippitt Mill is a historic textile mill conversion project that breathes new life into a significant Rhode Island historical landmark. This project addresses the housing shortage by converting a vacant textile complex into 71 high-quality affordable housing residencies while keeping the architectural heritage of the Lippitt Mill in West Warwick

Situated at 835 Main Street, the property holds historical prominence as the third oldest mill in the state, dating back to the 1800’s. Marathon Construction is reversing years of neglect by transforming the 69,761 square foot property into a thriving residential community. The development offers a mix of modern apartments and townhomes along with onsite storage, laundry, walking trails and community spaces.

This project reinforces Marathon’s dedication to neighborhood stabilization and importance of historical preservation. The development team is focused on delivering a sustainable living environment that respects the buildings past while helping build a prosperous future for West Warwick families.
