Description
The Old Mill Shopping Center (also called the Old Mill Speciality Center) opened in 1976. Considered a "Ghiradelli-type" shopping area, the new indoor development boasted boutique shops, movies, trendy restaurants and a waterfall and creek all centering around its namesake working mill. By 1987, the Old Mill was experiencing hard times. It closed, gutted the inside and reopened as the Old Mill Public Market. Here tenants sold everything from kitchenware to dried fruits to wine to imported and ethnic foods. The new concept was not successful and the market closed in 1989. The Crossings, a mixed residential community of apartments, townhouses and single family homes, now occupies the former site of the Old Mill. Mountain View, California.
