Winn Transforms Charlotte-Area Mill into Affordable Apartments
WinnCompanies completed its first-ever adaptive reuse project in North Carolina, a $36 million development that created 139 affordable apartments in a long-vacant, historic textile mill in Bessemer City. WinnCompanies recently opened the Lofts at Osage Mill, located only 30 minutes from Charlotte.
The 127-year-old mill’s redevelopment preserved the building’s iconic exterior and historic features while creating 12 three-bedroom apartments, 77 two-bedroom units and 50 one-bedroom units for households earning 60 percent of the Area Median Income.
The Lofts at Osage Mill offers a host of modern amenities, including a resident lounge, business center, fitness room, and secured storage for residents. New skylights bring natural light into the building’s interior atriums. Residents can enjoy outdoor seating, a picnic area, and a playground. The property offers 244 parking spaces, including 20 spaces for persons with disabilities.
