Description

Learn more about this property

Loray Mill Loft Apartments and shoppes in Historic Loray Village Situated just southwest of downtown Gastonia, the neighboring area surrounding the Loray Mill is known as Loray Mill Village. It was established in 1902 after the completion of the Loray Mill. Life revolved around the mill. Families in the neighborhood worked together and knew one another personally. Their children would gather at the mill's swimming pool in the summer, and parents could walk to the bank, the post office, or the grocery store, all within a few blocks. Through various ownerships, the mill and surrounding mill village finally was purchased by Firestone, Inc. in 1935 and life continued. Over the years, the mill houses were offered to the mill workers for purchase. The initial offering from Firestone was estimated at $500/room to the workers and Firestone provided some financing. Today, many of the mill houses remain occupied by former mill workers. But when the mill closed in 1993, everything changed. The grand old building began to fall apart, and took with it a sense of community. Today, Loray Mill Loft Apartments and Shoppes is transforming the entire neighborhood. The mill remains the centerpiece of Loray Mill Village, standing majestic at 6 stories tall. At the time of construction, Loray Mill was the largest mill under one roof in the world. The mill is renowned for both its architecture and many significant events that took place there. Its pioneering design which suppressed fire and the spread of fire through architectural features include rounded columns, separated stairwells and a state-of-the-art air conditioning system. These features were copied for years to come in other textile mills. In April 2013, reconstruction began on the renovation of Phase I of the 600,000 square foot Loray Mill to a mixed-use community of live, work, play. Phase I features 189 loft apartments for rent and 80,000 square feet of retail/commercial space. The area surrounding the mill is under a revitalization of its own to include the installation of a brand new city park. Loray Mill Village is coming alive with a buzz of activity once again. Call 855.350.1443 TODAY to reserve your new loft apartment home! Or for more information on the retail/commercial space available at Loray Mill please contact Coldwell Banker Commercial MECA (704) 266-5034.

We may have moved in too early but, a majority of the promised amenities have not come to fruition. This essentially means I am over paying for an okay apartment in a shady (at best) neighborhood.

The apartments were nice! Until you factor in the mismatched paint, the terrible ceilings fans that fly off and nearly take your head off. Terrible lighting through the apartment. When I lived there I was constantly promised amenities that were never followed through with.

I have experienced issues with property management and maintenance since day one. I was told I could arrive at 9am on my move in date to pick up my keys and move in. I arrived at 10am and was told I should have called in advance to confirm moving in that morning was good because my apartment would not be ready gor another three hours and they lost my keys in the interim and I had to wait at least 2 hours for keys to be made. Thankfully I had sheduled my belonging to be moved in a week later!

Beautiful space, price is great. But takes a long time to get things done, such as updating things on site like they say they will or hearing back from an email. A lot of nosey body's but overall it's a pretty cool place to stay.

We love the history of the mill, the concept and nice features of our unit like the granite and stainless steel. Ours is nicely located and quiet, and I love that it's pet friendly. I am disappointed, however, in that they have not been able to have the shops. They have a top notch athletic club, but I was looking forward to the brewery, shops, and restaurant that they had planned. If that ever happens, I may never go out again.

Loray loft apartments are beautiful! Love the concrete floors-easy maintenance; granite counter tops; huge windows letting in lots of natural light; game room and fitness center! The staff are all very friendly and excellent to work with--leasing office, maintenance and cleaning. My only complaint is that a lot of tenants do not pick up after their dogs--I think with a little more rule enforcement and accountability this could get better (maybe even implementing the DNA test)

Poor communication from office MGR. Took a month and double my power bill to get someone to take me serious when the heat was not functioning properly. Big building for only one elevator. Been saying for months the new elevator would be working soon.

The place is okay. There is currently one elevator, so moving in and out or trying to use the elevator when someone is moving in or out is very challenging. Also the elevator is small, so larger furniture may not fit so you may have to carry up stairs. People are not cleaning up behind their pets and management doesn't seem to be addressing. I live on front side of building so my apartment has a tendency to be hard to heat in comparison to others I have spoken to that live on back side.

This apartment is disappointing. For the money, you can get a better apartment in the area than this one. The investment company renovated this building like they intended to flip it, putting in shoddy work rather than making this old mill great, like it could have been. There are dim lights (not LEDs that get brighter as they warm up), poorly designed apartment layouts (no doors, folks!), fantastic hallway acoustics (hear your neighbors like they're in your apartment), and bats (na na na...).

The A/C doesn't work and only blast heat, today when I left my apt was 85 degrees. My showers hot water only last for 5 mins at a time, and my dryer heated but didn't spin so it burnt my clothes. Not to mention it took two weeks for my Cable and Internet to be installed because the building was constructed correctly as well as someone cut the lines. I put in an order to fix these issues when I first moved in almost 2 weeks ago and the only thing they have managed to fix is the dryer.

We love the athletic club, the friendly office staff, and the overall history of the building. We didn't give it an excellent rating becuase of the quality of the after modelling finishes, the quality of the outdoor amenities like the fire pit and pool house, and the awful closet design. However, we've worked around the closet situtation by installing our own storage solutions.

Still under construction...so I paid for many amenities that I didn't recieve or that were finished near the end of my lease so I didn't get to fully take advantage of them. I think it would be worth the money when everything is finished.

This apartment complex has great potential but sadly, they don't care about the property and residents. They originally sold us on this complex with false hope of police satellite station, coffee shops, and other amenities that have never came in affect. Also not to mention the pool that is sold as this amazing thing for residents also has to be shared with the gym that just opened. The property is littered with dog pooh, trash, and the apartments itself have leaky windows
