Shetland Park is an office park on the waterfront by the Pickering Wharf area that has 5 large buildings on 35 acres. Formerly known as Pequot Mills, home to the Naumkeag Steam Cotton Co., Robert Lappin purchased the old complex in 1958. He has owned and run it for the last 53 years in his home town of Salem. The Park did well all along, but soared in popularity when he added large windows to capture the view of the waterfront in the 1980's.
