The Drawn Metal Tube factory at 219 Elm St. is closed and the property is for sale. According to a posting on the Crexi commercial real estate web site, the sale price for the 125-year-old brick structure is $2,250,000. Lewis Brass & Copper Co., based in Middle Village, N.Y., is the property owner and lists it as a warehouse on its website. Company President and Chief Executive Officer Luke Anderson declined to comment for this story. Economic Development Commission Chairman Lissa Jennings said the building has many advantages as it is right off the highway, is in the center town, and walkable to other destinations. In addition, construction is set to being on the town’s portion of the Naugatuck River Greenway on Elm Street. The entire 44-mile trail will extend from Derby to Torrington. Lewis Brass & Copper Co. is “responsible for site investigation and remediation” at the site, which is being conducted under the oversight of a licensed environmental professional, he said.
