ABOUT US

Sherman Mills

History:


John Dobson purchased what is now known as Sherman Mills, in the mid 1800’s.  The Dobson Mills Complex stretched over nearly twenty-six acres along the Schuylkill River, where an industrial village named “Falls of Schuylkill” was built around the first natural falls. This area is now referred to as East Falls.


Originally used to manufacture yarn, the mills produced wool yarn, blankets, overcoat material, and various other types of textiles. During the Civil War, Dobson designed army blankets and uniforms for the Union troops.

Sherman Mills:


Sherman Mills originated in 2001 when Real Estate Developer, Mark Sherman, had a mission to create an affordable, sustainable residential and commercial business community. He developed residential lofts and commercial suites, while utilizing the original structure of the former textile mills.


Tucked away from the hustle and bustle of city life, Sherman Mills is conveniently located near many Philadelphia attractions such as the Philadelphia Museum of Art, Boathouse Row, the picturesque Kelly Drive, the Schuylkill River and the Wissahickon Valley Park. Our complex is easily accessible to Route 1 and Interstate 76, and also has convenient access to public transportation.


Sherman Mills currently has 103 commercial spaces and 44 residential lofts, with new development projects continuously in motion. Current businesses that reside within the complex include a 12,000 square foot event space, a children’s play facility, industrial office suites, and a multitude of artist studios and workshop spaces. 


As a tenant, you will enjoy free parking in our spacious parking lot, and access to our newly renovated fitness facility! We are also pet friendly, and have an electric car charging station available on site.


If you’re looking for the perfect place to unleash your imagination and pursue your creative dreams, our community at Sherman Mills is the place for you.

Our family of businesses extends even further!

In Riva Restaurant

IN RIVA


Did you know that Mark Sherman also co-owns three restaurants in the East Falls area, just a minute away from Sherman Mills? In 2011, he teamed up with renowned chef, Arthur Cavaliere, to unveil a one-of-a-kind culinary experience Philadelphia had yet to encounter. With their strong trust and loyalty to each other, they created what has become one of the most unique and celebrated restaurants in all of the tri-state area. Inspired by its location along the banks of the Schuylkill River, In Riva (meaning, “along the banks” in Italian) was born.


Specializing in Napoletana style pizza prepared in a wood fire oven, with house made pastas and antipasti designed for sharing, the menu delivers outstanding renditions of Southern Italian classics, along with unexpected, yet equally satisfying, contemporary dishes.
