“Schlitz Brewery — 1951”
95 Evergreen Avenue was erected for Schlitz in 1951 — the exact year on Joseph's list.
One of the cleanest then/now adaptive-reuse stories: the 1951 industrial shell Joseph worked on is still legible inside a modern office conversion.
What Kelly did here
Family source
Strong
Substantial exterior red-brick masonry on the five-story Schlitz brewery/factory at 95 Evergreen Avenue, plus likely interior CMU/block service, production, fire-separation and shaft walls.
This scope is recorded as strong, not documented. It is a disciplined reading of the building and the trade practice of the period, not a contract-level record of Kelly’s work.
