My cousin her hubby and kids used to live in the Eagle Warehouse. Right down near the base of the Brooklyn Bridge
Eagle Warehouse
I worked on the Brooklyn Bridge, and Manhattan Bridge in the late '70s before many of these awesome properties were restored...and can remember exploring the Eagle Warehouse with a flashlight... It is a fantastic building.. especially the loft with the clock works...
Back then it not so nice...Late '70s was before the tidal wave of Crack swept through NYC but it was more of a shooting gallery, homeless squat.. Now mere mortals cant even get inside.. That clock works apartment is probably one of the most desirable locations in NYC..
