The remaining elements of the Elisabeth Mill, dating from 1875, the smoke stack and the tower came down Tuesday to make room for the $50 million, four-story building proposed by developer Michael Integlia.

Integlia, who bought the 86-acre former Leviton Manufacturing property, subdivided the property into five lots. Dean Warehouse bought one of the parcels and relocated its operations to the sprawling single-story building on the site. One lot that is made up of wetlands and is more than 20 acres will be left in its natural state, and Integlia plans to build on the remaining three.

Construction on the first of those developments, an office building on Metro Center Boulevard, is slated to start this spring. The building is projected to cost $24 million to $25 million.

When Integlia announced demolition of the mill building last December, he didn’t have tenants for the proposed building to replace it. He put the cost of that project at $50 million and said it would include a combination of residential, retail and office uses. He made no promises as to when construction would start.

Mayor Scott Avedisian has hailed the development as a key component to City Centre and redevelopment of the area between the airport terminal and Jefferson Boulevard.
