Richland Cotton Mill, also known as Pacific Mills, Lowenstein Mill, and Whaley's Mill, is a historic cotton mill building located at Columbia, South Carolina. It was built in 1894, and is a four-story, rectangular brick mill building. It features a seven-story stair tower, with a circular vent flanked by two arched vents. Attached to the building are an engine room, a boiler room with chimney, and a machine shop.[2][3]
It was purchased by Pacific Mills in 1915, along with three other mills in the area, collectively called Columbia Pacific Mills. In 1923, Pacific Mills began a further expansion, to Groce's Stop, South Carolina, which was later renamed to Lyman. The Columbia operations produced cloth that was shipped to Lyman or Lawrence, Massachusetts for further processing.[4]
It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.[1]
