Bush Terminal garment campus
will create 1,500 jobs: city
BY BEN VERDE
A massive new clothing manufacturing
center is coming to Brooklyn’s
Bush Terminal — and bringing 1,500
new jobs when it opens in 2021, according
to city reps.
Manufacturing honchos at Made in
New York — a branch of the quasi-governmental,
pro-development group,
the Economic Development Corporation
— announced the 200,000 square
foot manufacturing complex, which
will house between 20 and 30 clothesmaking
companies along the First Avenue
waterfront near 50th Street.
Currently, garment makers comprise
30-percent of all manufacturing
jobs citywide, and the neighborhood
surrounding the planned facility is
home to the second most garment manufacturers
in all fi ve boroughs — making
this the ideal spot for a sprawling
new industrial complex, according to
development honchos.
The new facility will include a 5.3-
acre promenade with public access
along the shoreline, according to the
architect behind the planned public
space.
“We are pleased to be part of the
team which will open this signifi cant
historic campus to the public, and create
a more sustainable and accessible
waterfront in Brooklyn,” said Barbara
Wilks of W Architecture.
With the hotly debated rezoning of
nearby Industry City, many community
activists have pushed for more
manufacturing jobs in the area, which
is zoned as an Industrial Business
Zone along the waterfront.
Activists say the jobs are more accessible
to the largely working-class
immigrant community, and pay better
than the retail jobs Industry City has
offered as an incentive for their rezoning.
However, many locals say the city’s
inability to provide the details on compensation
for the 1,500 promised jobs
makes them hard to get excited about.
“How do they expect the average
working-class immigrant Sunset Park
resident to answer that question ‘Are
these the types of jobs that we need’
when we don’t even know the salary
information?” said Jorge Muñiz Reyes,
a community organizer. “This is just
part of a larger pattern of big promises
being made to a neighborhood without
any factual basis to back up those bold
claims.”
