Built for Biddeford's Mill-Town Revival
Biddeford's downtown has gone through one of Maine's most significant redevelopments over the past two decades, with historic textile mills like the Pepperell Mill Campus and North Dam Mill converted into apartments, offices, and retail space. That kind of adaptive reuse depends on careful interior demolition, gutting old industrial space without compromising the brick, timber, or structural elements that give the building its character.
Biddeford is also one of Maine's fastest-growing commercial centers, with new retail and restaurant space continuing to open downtown and along its commercial corridors. Biddeford has its own building and zoning approval process, and Briggs Contracting acquires the necessary permits on every job.
