Summary
Significance: This building was constructed on Main Street in 1870 for mill worker housing. In 1892 it was moved to its present location to make way for Monadnock Mill #3. It continued to be used for mill worker housing until 1932 when the Monadnock Mills were bought out by Bate Manufacturing Company of Bangor, Maine. The property was sold to private ownership and rented as an 18-unit tenement until 1983 when the City purchased it. It is currently vacant.
