Worumbo Mill Site

The redevelopment of the historic Worumbo Mill site presents a unique opportunity to reimagine a former industrial landmark as a vibrant, mixed-use community hub that reconnects the city with its riverfront heritage and industrial past. Aceto Kimball Landscape Architecture (AKLA) leads the urban design vision for this transformative project, blending ecological restoration, cultural preservation, and placemaking to create a resilient and inclusive neighborhood. Situated along Maine’s Kennebec River, the Worumbo Mill site has long been a symbol of the region’s manufacturing legacy. AKLA’s vision embraces this history while charting a new future through a landscape-led approach that prioritizes public access, green infrastructure, and human-scaled urbanism.
