Carter Horsley's Review of Milk Factory

Carter Horsley's Building Review
"This handsome, 5-story building at 850 Metropolitan Avenue between Orient Avenue and Olive Street in East Williamsburg was built in 1920 and converted by Boaz Gilad to a condominium in 2020.  It has 34 apartments. 

The building was formerly a three-story Borden Milk distribution facility and the new four-story project is appropriately named the Milk Factory. " Read Carter's Full Review
