Leading Economic Indicators: Slacker Musicians On The Williamsburg-Greenpoint Border
Here’s your flagging real estate market and/or economy* — an industrial property nestled between the site of the yet-to-be-built Bushwick Inlet Park and McCarren Park along the Williamsburg-Greenpoint border is slated to become a band rehearsal space:
The property, at 180 N. 14th St., was leased to Band Spaces NYC, a provider of rehearsal studio space.
Band Spaces is expanding, and saw this site — in the heart of the burgeoning entertainment corridor in North Williamsburg — as the perfect complement to its existing location in Park Slope, which will remain open, Dolgin said.
*Since, after all, the parcel is zoned M1-2 (light manufacturing) and not residential or mixed use . . .
