It seems the Landmarks Preservation Commission (LPC) is rubber-stamping everything that enters their field of vision lately — in February, the Ridgewood Theatre was given protected status, and today the LPC has designated the William Ulmer Brewery complex on Beaver and Belvidere Streets a historic landmark.

The Times reports that the entire complex, including the office, the brewhouse and a later addition, an engine and machine house, and a stable and storage building was approved for landmarking this afternoon.

“The two-story Romanesque Revival red-brick office building (easily identifiable by the word ‘Office’ chiseled into the facade) is home to a furniture designer named Zeb Stewart who, in a neat piece of symmetry, is also a co-owner of two bars in Williamsburg. ‘It feels great,’ Mr. Stewart said upon being told the news. ‘It’s a beautiful house.’”

William Ulmer, who came to Bushwick from Germany at age 17 and died in 1907, might be pleased with the designation. He would likely be surprised that his company’s facilities still stand at all, especially considering the short life of the amusement park he established in Bath Beach, the only evidence remaining being the name of the nearby Ulmer Park bus depot.
