Developer purchases Hardwick mill for $5M cannabis project

Photo | CoStar The mill at 94 Main St. in Hardwick is proposed to be converted into a cannabis cultivation facility.

A real estate developer with plans for a cannabis establishment bought a former mill in Hardwick for $500,000 on Dec. 16, according to real estate database CoStar.

George Lang purchased the mill at 94 Main St. In April, he proposed a $5-million adaptive reuse plan at a community outreach meeting in Hardwick. 

The roughly 113,000-square-foot mill is split into three buildings, one of which is slated for a 50,000- to 60,000-square-foot cannabis cultivation facility called Hardwick Mills Greenery. The other two structures will be available to be used for restaurant, office, or retail space, with the possibility of becoming a marijuana dispensary.

The four-story mill was built in 1910, according to the Hardwick assessors’ data, and was last sold in 2018 for $300,000. The Town of Hardwick assesses the property at $321,000.

Lang has commercial and condominium developments in Braintree.

The mill was actually built in 1860 and was part of the George H. Gilbert manufacturing company which is where Gilbertville the village that the building is actually situated in derives its name.
