established 1925

 

At the corner of deadend Avenue B and deadend 15th Street (so stated on the streets signs!) is Economy Mills.  While the streets may dead-end, the mill is located on the railroad tracks and around the corner from the infamous former Lubbock hogpens.  A decade or so, the facility decided to spruce up with decorative painting to enhance its status along the interstate.  Unfortunately, a fire broke out a year or so later and no further renovations were undertaken.
