Apartments for Rent in Fall River, MA (1,100 Rentals)

Officially incorporated in 1854, Fall River quickly established itself as a textile hot spot and home to a growing number of mills, and by the 1870s the area was commonly referred to as 'The Spindle City'. Granite quarries were also operated, which helped in the construction of many of the town's most notable structures. By the early 1900s, Fall River's reputation as a growing economic hub lead to rapid expansion, from hotels to restaurants. The addition of the Braga Bridge and Interstate 195 in the 1960s altered much of the city's landscape, with many housing developments accompanying the changes in the 1980s.
