PROGRESS AT BROOKLYN PLACE
Plans were submitted this week for Brooklyn Place, a 4-unit retail and restaurant development that will be adjacent to the existing Brooklyn Station shopping center along Riverside Ave.
The plans show three smaller units ranging from 1,900 to 2,600 sq. ft. in size, and a fourth, 4,348 sq. ft. unit separated from the others by a small walkway. A total of 150 additional parking spaces are also included in the plans.
The retail strip has been planned for some time now, but the submission of documents indicates that the project is ready to move forward. Chipotle is expected as one of the tenants for the project.
