Mainly in the eastern half of the US, cause the west wasn't explored yet. They were usually along rivers so that the water could be used as power. It was also more in the Northern half, like PA or NY.
The early bridges that were built by early man were the log bridge. That is a a log was thrown across a river to cross.
Samuel Slater is the man who brought textile factories to the New England area in the late 1700's. He was known as the Father of Standard American Revolution, and was responsible for most factory industry in America.
At the beginning of the Industrial Revolution, most new machines were built for textile manufacturing, significantly transforming the production process. Innovations such as the spinning jenny and the power loom increased efficiency and output in fabric production, allowing for mass production. This shift not only revolutionized the textile industry but also propelled urbanization and changes in labor dynamics as people moved to cities for factory work.
most of the cotton mills are located in faisalabad (pakistan)
The first American Railroad was built in the North, called the Baltimore and Ohio, or B&O Railroad.
By the early 20th century, most of the US textile industries had moved to the south. North Carolina alone had 177 mills in 1900. Previous to this, most of the textile industries were located in the northeast.

Because these new machines ran on water power, most mills were built near rivers.

Most American textile mills were located in the Northeast region due to several factors, including access to water power from rivers, which was essential for running machinery before the advent of steam power. The Northeast also had a dense population, providing a readily available labor force and a large market for finished goods. Additionally, the region's proximity to shipping ports facilitated the import of raw materials, such as cotton, and the export of finished products. Lastly, the early industrialization efforts and infrastructure development, such as railroads, were concentrated in the Northeast, further supporting the growth of textile mills there.
water was used to power the mills because it was the only source of power in most cases.
Most mills in the United States were historically concentrated in the Northeast, particularly in states like Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and New York. This region was known for its abundant water power and access to transportation routes, facilitating the growth of textile and other industrial mills during the Industrial Revolution. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, mills also began to appear in the Midwest, particularly in states like Ohio and Michigan, as industries expanded westward.
Because steel was the most important industry there.
The economy of the northeast is mainly influenced by industry and business.
