HISTORY
In 1998, after years of Manhattan living, Brian Taylor took the L Train to the Bedford Stop in Williamsburg, Brooklyn and walked into the first real estate office he spotted. Agent Tomasz Smolinski took one look and decided that Williamsburg might be a tad too hip for Brian's new home and found him a brownstone apartment at 93 Milton Street in neighboring Greenpoint.
Brian ended up loving Greenpoint and began begging every Manhattan bar owner he knew to open up a joint in Greenpoint. He finally gave up, recruited construction genius Sean O'Rourke and customer service magician Louise Favier, and the three friends opened the Pencil Factory Bar in December, 2001.
