Though the Buildings life started as a silk factory in 1886, it was a bra-manufacturing plant and
became famous in 1929 as the legendary Maidenform complex where the corporate headquarters
resided for about 76 years before relocating in the 90’s. Built as three separate buildings, the complex
includes several buildings and outbuildings and a landlocked courtyard all adjacent to the original
industrial rail lines of the great industrial period in the United States. The original structures were
generally built of multiwythe masonry exterior walls and heavy timber columns, beams and decking
of long leaf yellow pine.This species was prized for its density and common during that period of time.
In 2010, the building was purchased and its future became a long road to an Adaptive Re-Use and
restoration development project. The 100 Year old plus building was converted to eighty-Five (85)
residential loft type apartments which received landmark approval for Historic Preservation by
the National Parks Service.
