History

The Mill #2 Annex was built between 1940 and 1942, by the Bethlehem Steel Corporation.

It was originally designed and built as a surface preparation and finishing mill for the Alloy and Tool Steel Division at Bethlehem Steel's Lehigh Plant in Bethlehem. ^[2]

The 4.5 acres (1.8 ha) Mill No. 2 Annex was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2004. ^[1]
