East Mill Works - A New Beginning

East Mill Works is a redevelopment initiative focused on transforming a historic former paper mill in East Millinocket, Maine into a vibrant mixed-use hub for businesses, jobs, and community spaces. Backed by federal EPA Brownfields grants totaling $4.5 million, the project is actively cleaning and preparing the site to attract new investment and partners. Current tenants — including Convalt Energy, Home Grown Fuels, and Lynch Logistics — are already putting the mill back to work as the community shapes its economic future.
