The city has announced it will open two business hubs totaling 100,000 square feet this summer as part of its UrbanTech NYC program, according to Crain’s. One of them will be a 50,000 square-foot building in the Brooklyn Navy Yard, dubbed New Lab. The facility, which is currently being renovated, will offer affordable commercial rents to companies in search of office and/or manufacturing space. The other 50,000 square-foot location is at Grand Central Terminal, and companies will have to apply and then be selected to lease space. Macro Sea is developing – and designing in-house – the Brooklyn Navy Yard’s facility, and the New York City Economic Development Corporation (NYCEDC) is behind the initiative.
