In the late 1870s Fall River experienced a period of economic growth, driven by the demand for linen. South-east New England was the birthplace of the United States textile industry and Fall River became known as Spindle City. By 1876 the city was home to 43 factories, more than 30,000 looms and more than one million spindles.
