Time To Play Detective

The Times habitat section ran a piece recently on a single man, planning for his future with a larger than necessary condo in the neighborhood.

"The following year, after having visited several dozen apartments, Mr. Chung settled on a $649,000 condominium on Smith Street in Carroll Gardens, Brooklyn, in an industrial building that had done time as a dairy store and possibly a doll factory. The apartment had three bedrooms and was just a block from Public School 58, considered one of the best in the city. "

So, any guesses as to where this former doll factory is, one block from 58? I'm guessing that it is The Mill, but that's more than a block away. Fuzzy math?
