Alexander Smith Carpet Mills Historic District

The Alexander Smith Carpet Mills Historic District is a national historic district located at Yonkers, Westchester County, New York. It includes 85 contributing buildings. It encompasses 19 stylistically varied mill buildings and six rows of workers' housing. They were developed between 1871 and 1930 along the banks of the Saw Mill River. The main mill building was originally built in 1871 and expanded between 1876 and 1883. It is a three story, rectangular building, 52 bays wide and five bays deep in the Second Empire style. It features a four story tower and a five story tower. The workers' housing, known as Moquette Row, North and South, was built between 1881 and 1886. The carpet works were developed by Alexander Smith (1818-1878). The company closed the Yonkers mills and relocated to Greenville, Mississippi in 1954.〔An Industry Moves South, Readers Digest, March, 1956〕 It was later absorbed into Mohawk Carpet, later Mohasco Corporation.〔 ''See also:'' 〕 The carpet weaving industry was revolutionized by looms invented in this plant by Alexander Smith and Halcyon Skinner.
It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.〔 Today, members of the YoHo Artist Community work out of two of buildings, located at 540 and 578 Nepperhan Avenue.〔Fallon, Bill (March 3, 2008). “Industrial Arts: Carpet Mills Become Studio Central.” ''Westchester County Business Journal,'' p. 49.〕
