Soon many other mills dotted New England. There are still a few mills operating in the original old buildings in Fall River, MA, but overall the mills are few and far between.
Where were factories built in the 1790?
In the 1790s, factories were primarily built in the northeastern United States, particularly in areas like Massachusetts and Rhode Island. These regions had access to water power from rivers, which was essential for operating early textile mills. The rise of industrialization also led to the establishment of factories in urban centers to capitalize on the growing labor force. Overall, the focus was on locations that could provide the necessary resources and transportation for manufacturing.
