This Centuries-Old Massachusetts Water Mill Is Now An Electric Apartment Complex

There’s space within the lobby of the Stone Mill Lofts, a new 86-unit rental community in Lawrence, Massachusetts, that the Architectural Team, or TAT—the design firm behind the project—calls the windows into the past. Gaze into a pane of glass set in the wall, and you can see a 180-year-old turbine, machinery preserved in amber, as you walk up to your apartment.
