Overview of The Ice Cream Factory at 347 Berry Street

The Ice Cream Factory is a six story rental building at 347 Berry Street, also known as 95 South 5th Street, created from a former Williamsburg ice cream factory in 2016. Developed by Pilot Real Estate Group and Horrigan Development and designed by Standard Architects, the 23 apartment building retains the original structure as part of a larger contemporary composition.

Its most recognizable feature is the smaller factory façade, covered in black and white glyphs by Brooklyn artist Katie Merz. Merz also created work for the polished concrete lobby, while additional art appears at the private entrances and on individual floors. The building's apartments are lofts ranging from studios to one and two bedrooms, with ceiling heights of roughly nine to 11 feet, oversized floor to ceiling windows, and private balconies or terraces in the apartment mix.

Apartment interiors have bamboo floors, kitchens with marble counters and modern appliances, beige tiled bathrooms with rain showerheads, and in-unit washers and dryers. Building amenities include central air conditioning, a recreation room, a bike room, on-site parking, and a landscaped roof deck with views toward the Williamsburg Bridge. A coffee shop occupies the ground floor.

The building sits directly north of the Williamsburg Bridge, with the J, M, and Z trains at Marcy Avenue a few blocks away. The Ice Cream Factory's combination of industrial remnants, contemporary construction, and integrated artwork gives the compact rental building a distinctly local architectural identity.
