As winter slowly subsides, the thaw sets in, and we move into spring, a wonderful world of culture, history and 'industry in action' awaits you at BLDG 92 - your gateway to the Brooklyn Navy Yard.
Whiskey Wars on St. Patty's Day
The luck of the Irish comes to life on St. Patty's Day, as BLDG 92 takes you back in time on our popular Whiskey Wars Factory Tour. Explore whiskey scandals of the past through the tales of "Irishtown" - better known today as Vinegar Hill. Tour Kings County Distillery for a taste of modern day moonshine and witness the resurgence of the industry today.
