    Hello there,

    My name is Efrain Torres III – I am the Property Manager at the Brown Building Student Living. We’re located on 20 East Main Street Waterbury CT, 06702

    The Brown Building Student Living was renovated back in 2016 and used to be many things before it was converted into student dormitories. I was looking on your page to see if you have any historical records of the building. I see you have many Art Deco property in CT. The Brown Building is an art deco style building and it still holds many of its historical features.

    The building is located downtown. Near and next to the Uconn Waterbury campus, across Domenic & Pia, and next to the Apothecary Hall on S Main St.

    We here at the Brown Building would be interested in learning more about the history of our building. We would also love to be added to the list of CT Historical Buildings. Our Website is brownbuildingliving.com Instagram @brownbuildingliving

    Please get back to me at your earliest convenience.

    Thank you,

    Efrain Torres III
