Project development and construction company Skanska USA has signed a lease for 15,300 square feet of pre-built space inside Building 2 at Industry City, a mixed-use campus in Sunset Park, Brooklyn.
Skanska’s new space will serve as the project office for the Equinor Offshore Wind project, for which the company was recently awarded an $861 million contract. The project will transform the adjacent 73-acre South Brooklyn Marine Terminal into one of the nation’s largest ports for the staging and assembly of offshore wind platforms.

Industry City features 16 buildings across its 35-acre commercial complex. Tenants benefit from access to a fitness center, frequent live events, and a variety of dining options. Leasable space ranges from small offices for mid-sized businesses and solo entrepreneurs to large office spaces, tailored storefronts, turnkey retail spaces, and industrial buildings for production studios and bioscience laboratories. The 8,500-person campus is currently home to more than 550 businesses.
“We are proud to play a role in the transformation of the South Brooklyn Marine Terminal, which will transition a historic feature of Brooklyn’s waterfront into an industry-leading offshore wind port,” said Richard Kennedy, EVP, president, and CEO for Skanska in the U.S. “This project underscores Skanska’s commitment to building sustainable infrastructure, and this state-of-the-art facility will provide New York City with clean and alternative energy, as well as serve as a national model for renewable energy hubs.”
