About this property

Nassau Brewing Company, also known as the Budweiser Brewing Company of Brooklyn and Bedford Brewery, is a historic brewery apartment complex located in the Crown Heights neighborhood of Brooklyn, Kings County, New York. It consists of two remaining industrial buildings dating from the 1860s to the 1880s and are in the Rundbogenstil and Romanesque Revival style. The brick buildings are two to six stories and form an "L"-shape. The buildings feature substantial underground brick vaults originally constructed for the aging of lager beer at near-freezing temperatures. The brewery closed in 1916. The earlier sections are vacant and the 1880s elements were rehabilitated as apartments and offices in the 2000s. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2014. Dushinsky’s Rabsky Group won a bankruptcy auction to buy the Nassau Brewing redevelopment at 945 Bergen Street with a bid of $18.8 million, according to court records and sources familiar with the sale.
