Cold war: Brooklyn Ice Cream Factory to open across from rival creamery
Brooklyn Ice Cream Factory is returning to the Fulton Ferry area by summer’s end.
The city has made it official: Brooklyn Ice Cream Factory is coming back to its home turf at the entrance to Brooklyn Bridge Park.
There, the artisanal ice cream maker will face off with Ample Hills Creamery — which took over the Marine Fire Boat Station where Brooklyn Ice Cream Factory’s shop was located for 17 years.
Brooklyn Ice Cream Factory had to move out in December because Brooklyn Bridge Park selected Ample Hills Creamery to be the new tenant of the 1920s building, which is located next to the Brooklyn Bridge and gets heavy foot traffic from park visitors.
