Living at Factory 52 Apartments means more than just having a beautiful place to call home—it means being part of a dynamic, ever-evolving community filled with experiences just steps from your front door.
Over the years, Hi-Wire Brewing has been a staple of our campus, offering up great beer, vibrant events, and a welcoming spot to gather with friends and neighbors. We’ve loved having them here and are grateful for the way they helped shape the Factory 52 vibe. As they navigate the aftermath of Hurricane Helene and refocus their efforts back in North Carolina, we send them off with heartfelt appreciation and best wishes for the road ahead.
With change comes new opportunity—and we’re excited to share that Braxton Brewing Company will be taking over the taproom and green space at Factory 52 this summer. If you’ve ever visited their flagship location in Covington, you already know the kind of atmosphere they create: fun, approachable, and built for community. Think movie nights, seasonal pop-ups, local music, and of course—great beer.
The taproom and The Porch bar will close temporarily for minor updates, but will reopen soon with a fresh new look and plenty of new events for you to enjoy. And the best part? As a Factory 52 resident, it’s all happening just a few steps from home.
We can’t wait to welcome Braxton to the neighborhood—and we know you’ll love what’s brewing.
