The John M. Stone Cotton Mill is a building in Starkville, Mississippi listed on the National Register of Historic Places.[2] Built in 1902, it was a cotton mill named for John Marshall Stone. It was renamed the E.E. Cooley Building after being purchased by Mississippi State University in 1965; afterward, the building was used for almost fifty years to house the university's physical plant.[3] The building reopened in 2015 as an event center named The Mill at MSU.[4]
