Located in Wilmington, Delaware, any Bancroft Mills Condominium has its place firmly rooted in history starting in the 1830’s and 1840’s when Joseph Bancroft and his two sons located their cotton textile weaving business along the Brandywine Creek. The various mills founded by the Bancroft family flourished at the time prior to the Civil War and continued to evolve well into the 20th century. The current 49 Bancroft Mills Condominium building was an adaptive use of the last of these solidly built nineteenth century mill buildings in 1992, comprising 46 units. Because of its architectural significance, and its importance to the development of both the American textile industry and the City of Wilmington, 49 Bancroft Mills earned its place in history and in 1984, 49 Bancroft Mills was nominated to the National Register of Historic Buildings.
