Lionite Mill Redevelopment
The Lionite Mill property has transitioned to Price County United Limited (PCUL), breaking it free to redevelop and reimagine its space. The property has 141 years of industrial usage. It carried our community from lumber yards to lumber mills, and then by the mid 1900s was recreated into a hardboard plant. Our nonprofit is looking for YOUR perspective on its future use. We are revisioning, reinvesting, and redeveloping. Attend our community engagement meetings, connect with our ongoing survey, upload images of your vision, think BIG and creative!!!
