On the east side of Highway 23 is the mill village. Streets in the village radiate out from a semi-circular green space near the highway where the company store/community center was originally located. The clinic and two historic churches remain near the green. Housing is grouped in two sections to the north and south of a large park area that extends northeast from the green. The majority of lots in the village are small and rectangular. There are approximately 220 houses in the district which are consistently centered and set back on their lots. The vast majority are one-story bungalows with gable roofs, and finished with Craftsman detailing. All have gable-roofed front porches which were originally finished with a simple wood railing and wood support columns. Houses vary in size from three to five rooms. All originally contained a kitchen, modern bathroom with porcelain fixtures, bedrooms, and, in the larger houses, a living room. They are finished with plaster walls, wood floors, brick mantels, and simple woodwork?. One small group of ten houses located along “N” Avenue at the east edge of the district and somewhat isolated from the other houses. The trees that run along Highway 23 separating the village from the main road. Mature street trees and concrete sidewalks, both dating from 1927, line all the streets. A few of the original street lights remain in place, and historic brick retaining walls edge a number of front yards. Individual front yards are grassed and contain small amounts of foundation shrubbery. Electric lines are placed underground (historic feature) and there is an extensive system of storm sewers. The district is extremely intact. There are almost no non-contributing structures aside from the four modern industrial structures associated with the mill. by Robert Elzey
