Review:

Built in 1880, the Silk Mill in Hawley, Pennsylvania, has been an important part of the community in all its many incarnations: as a silk factory that used the most modern technology of the day, then later a textile factory, and an antique center. Today, the repurposed factory is envisioned as a gathering center for the folks of the Pocono Lake Region, a place where the residents and visitors can come to shop, hang out, eat, exercise, and learn. The ground floor Retail Center was designed by the renowned architect Peter Bohlin, The glass partitions separates the spaces, allowing the natural light from the River Gorge behind the Mill to illuminate the retail spaces. This space is occupied by a market and bakery, shop selling specialty beers, several art galleries, unique small shops selling clothing, shoes, antiques and home decor. There is also a bicycle shop and the Lake Region Fitness Center. The entire top floor of the Mill is occupied by the Lackawanna College, the only campus is Wayne and Pike Counties.
