Another very interesting Building of the Day from Brownstoner's Montrose Morris. The Merganthaler building recently got a bright red paint job, and proves to be one of the few buildings that wear that color successfully. The building was constructed for the Merganthaler Linotype company, and was one of many printing and printing-related buildings located in the South Williamsburg/Wallabout area (we've mentioned the McLoughlin Brothers plant before).
