Mills Along the Merrimack. Photos taken Dec. 27, 2014 when my husband and I took a walk along a trail on the opposite side of the mills.

When I moved to Lowell in 1964, this was my first grocery store.
New Jackson Street extension.
This run down gym was very popular with some boxers. Notable was "Micky Ward who was a junior welterweight battler from Lowell, Massachusetts who fought from 1985 to 2003, ending his career with a record of 38-12 and 27 KO. Ward was an excellent example of a fighter who was generally loved and supported by fans despite never winning a world title." (per google.)
Concord River behind this mill called Waterhead located at 850 Lawrence St.
Lovely pathway by the restored mill.
Lovely new walkway from the Lowell Cemetery to near Rogers Street.
I once applied for a job in this building. Not sure if the company was called Adden. I remember they made fabrics for car seats. I also remember another factory made Girl Scout cookies (called Educator and we could purchase samples) and another mill made fabric for clothes which we could purchase it. Other mills made socks and I think shoes.
The building on the left was completed first. It's called Counting House Lofts.
Note Lowell court house not shown in the distance, on the left side. It is shown below.
