Nicolet Mill on the Fox River, De Pere, Wisconsin

📅
The Nicolet Mill complex in De Pere, Wisconsin, stands alongside the Fox River, a remnant of the region’s historic paper-making industry that once defined the economy of the Green Bay area. The long, brick mill structure—now operated by American Nippon Papers—dates back to the early 20th century, when Wisconsin’s waterways powered dozens of mills along the Fox River. Still active today, the facility reflects the enduring legacy of papermaking in the Midwest, blending vintage industrial architecture with modern manufacturing extensions visible on the river-facing side.
