Downtown Brooklyn Macy’s site of third campus for global private school
There's new competition for Brooklyn Friends, Saint Ann’s and Packer Collegiate.
A high-end, for-profit private school is headed to Downtown Brooklyn.
Whittle School and Studios, an educational organization with facilities so far in D.C. and China, has its sights set on the old Macy’s Building at 181 Livingston St.
When it opens in 2020, the private institution will be the third in a global network of independent K-12 schools headed by entrepreneur Chris Whittle. By 2026, its founder hopes the Brooklyn campus will be one of 36 across the globe.
