The Wamesit Canal-Whipple Mill Industrial Complex is a historic mill and canal at 576 Lawrence Street in Lowell, Massachusetts. This industrial area of Lowell, located on the Concord River, underwent a major expansion from a more modest millworks in the mid-19th century by Oliver Whipple, a manufacturer of gunpowder. Whipple undertook the construction of a canal along that river to provide power for a number of mills he erected in the area, consulting with engineer Loammi Baldwin, Jr. on the matter. The area was further developed in the second half of the 19th century by the Wamesit Power Company, which acquired most of Whipple's properties and water rights. A mill built by Whipple in the 1820s, of which portions survive, is one of the oldest surviving industrial structures in the city.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=MACRIS inventory record for Wamesit Canal-Whipple Mill Industrial Complex )〕 The complex was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.〔 ==See also==
