The story
Named after the Johnny Mercer song, Moon River Brewing operated for 25 years in this 1821 building before closing in June 2024. The upper floors remained unrestored and were considered extremely haunted — the Travel Channel named it one of the most haunted places in America. The building sits directly above the Factors Walk tunnel network used by bootleggers during Prohibition.
