So in case you didn't know, The Chocolate Factory is not actually a chocolate factory ( I know, it should be right?). It used to be way back when Red Hook was wee little. Now it just houses various local businesses and commercial space for lease. But it's a great place to explore, and I am definitely a fan of promoting local business.
Some businesses inside include a dance school called Solas An Lae (who I have seen perform, they are great!), a martial arts academy, a flower shop and a preschool. There is a also a yoga place called Sacred Space Yoga Sanctuary which I absolutely adore. There's a few doctors offices as well that are housed here. There are some other places here too, but it's really a place that is so unique that you have to just see it for yourself. All in all, it's a great hidden gem of Red Hook and really, a place that should be appreciated more. read more
