The Monaghan Mill in Greenville, SC was designed by the Lockwood, Greene & Company and opened in 1901. It produced a variety of clothes and was among the largest mills in Greenville. After changing hands and surviving the depression, in the 1930s Monaghan Mill manufactured synthetic fabric. Managhan Mill couldn't keep up with the changing modern technology and closed in 2001.

In 2004, the mill was listed on the National Register and in 2006 was converted into luxery apartments. The Lofts of Greenville are well known in Upstate SC today (and when you change the page on the website it looks cool):
