Description from the Bronx Survey

Two groupings of red brick industrial buildings erected between 1885 and 1905 when this area of the Bronx was primarily a German neighborhood. Both complexes are built into the side of a steep hill where there are caves which were used as cool places to store lager beer. Architecturally undistinguished, the breweries are nonetheless significant as reminders of a way of life that no longer exists in the Bronx.
