Sunset Park to welcome large-scale fashion hub
Move over, Manhattan.
The New York City Economic Development Corporation (NYCEDC) announced on Thursday, December 4 the birth of Brooklyn’s own Manufacturing Innovation Hub for Apparel, Textiles and Wearable Tech, a development that will do just as it says – serve as the epicenter for the fashion ecosystem – right in Sunset Park.
The hub, located at the privately-operated Liberty View Industrial Plaza at 850 Third Avenue, will occupy 160,000 square feet and provide research, design, development and manufacturing resources for the city’s emerging designers and apparel manufacturers.
