The Friends of the Souther Tide Mill mission is to preserve the Souther Tide Mill, which stands on former Quincy Lumber Company site located on the Southern Artery in Quincy. We aim to promote public interest in and educational programs interpreting the grist mill, granite, lumber, ship building and maritime history of the city; to support present or future owners in maintaining the site and the buildings.
The Souther Tide Mill is located at 622 Southern Artery in Quincy, Massachusetts.
Amid Quincy’s many historic sites, few reflect more important local history than the area where the old Quincy Canal emptied into Town River. Thousands of people pass the site daily on the Southern Artery without noting the reminders of three industrial activities that played important roles in the story of Quincy.
