Boston Manufacturing Company
Bring a little Waltham home.
Cotton Canvas Tote · Natural · 15 × 16 inches
A few errands start with reaching for the bag by the door. Waltham's Boston Manufacturing Company buildings bring the Charles and the mill's successive sections together, giving textile history a particular riverside setting.
The Boston Manufacturing Company was founded in Waltham in 1813. Its first mill followed in 1814, a second in 1816, and a connecting section in 1843. The buildings beside the Charles record successive stages of textile production, with the river and mill infrastructure closely tied to the enterprise.
The first mill, second mill and connector make growth part of this Waltham story, keeping different phases of the workplace within one river landscape. It can be a practical gift that takes the local view along, with room for a book and the ordinary things needed for an errand.
