The 1979 classic movie about cotton textile workers union rights, Norma Rae, starring Sally Field & Beau Bridges, was filmed there.

As with many of the old companies, the mill was abandoned in 2004. Plans to renovate it into apartments & condos was put on hold due to the recession. It continues to deteriorate.
