Industrial Strength. Industry City.

Gregory Haley explores the redesigning of Brooklyn’s Industry City and how it supports innovation and the innovation economy.
“Everyone wants to be part of the innovation economy. But with six million square feet of industrial loft space housing more than 400 tenants in 16 buildings, Industry City is endeavoring to create what its CEO Andrew Kimball calls an ‘innovation ecosystem.”
