SUNSET PARK — New York City Economic Development Corporation (NYCEDC) announced that all of its major assets in Sunset Park, the Brooklyn Army Terminal (BAT), Bush Terminal and South Brooklyn Marine Terminal (SBMT) reached major milestones in 2024, further advancing the future of South Brooklyn’s working waterfront and establishing the area as an essential hub in Mayor Adams’ vision for the Harbor of the Future and turning Sunset Park into a center for clean tech innovation and manufacturing. 

“This year, the City of New York advanced its vision for the Harbor of the Future, with tremendous action and impact anchored in Sunset Park,” said First Deputy Mayor Maria Torres-Springer. “From the upcoming Climate Innovation Hub and community solar projects at the Brooklyn Army Terminal, to a transformational offshore wind project at the South Brooklyn Marine Terminal, to the launch of the rebranded MADE buildings at Bush Terminal, the past twelve months were a time for action, investment, job creation, and partnership with community, all of which position the Sunset Park portfolio and the city for continued success next year and in the coming decades.”

The Adams Administration’s Harbor of the Future initiative — announced in the mayor’s 2024 State of the City address to reimagine New York City’s waterfront and fuel 21st century growth — includes emerging innovation centers at the Hunts Point Produce Market, Governors Island, the Brooklyn Navy Yard, the Science Park and Research Campus in Kips Bay, and the North Shore of Staten Island. The Adams Administration is committed to making New York City a global hub of urban innovation — one of the 40 initiatives laid out in the “New” New York Action Plan.
