Earlier this week, the Waterfront Alliance posted this image of Bushwick’s Arion Hall back in its glory days of the early 20th century. Long before it was converted into lofts back in 2004 by Mayer Schwartz (and long before it was a mystery building on Brownstoner), the building was a center of culture and fun for the German population. While Arion Hall survived, its smaller Second Empire neighbor to the left did not. Do any readers currently live here? We’d be curious to hear about it.
