The Mill Works, a historic landmark in Willington, CT, offers over 30,000 square feet of unique and inspiring work space. Individual work environments are available for lease from 150 to 7,500 square feet. Our work spaces combine wood and brick with an abundance of natural light and water views to provide an inspirational environment for creative thought. This historic setting enhanced with current technology offers a peaceful and productive workplace where ideas become reality.. The Mill Works facility was originally home to the Gardiner Hall Jr Company, the first spooled thread manufacturer in the US, operating from 1860-1954. In 1962, the property was purchased by the Buccino family and has been continuously owned and operated by two generations for over 60 years. It has served as home for a variety of creative business applications from manufacturing / R&D concerns and retail establishments to professional offices, fine art studios, and most recently a cultural organization offering a performance venue and event space, history museum and community art gallery. The Mill Works facility is located approximately 1-mile from I-84, just minutes from the main University of Connecticut campus in Storrs, CT.
