Russ & Daughters to anchor ground floor of Brooklyn Navy Yard’s largest building
The Brooklyn Navy Yard announced Monday that New York City food institution Russ & Daughters will anchor the ground floor of Building 77, the Navy Yard’s new public food hall and manufacturing space. Renowned for its signature smoked fish, caviar, traditional bagels, bialys and baked goods, Russ & Daughters is run by Niki Russ Federman and Josh Russ Tupper — the fourth generation of the family, which founded the business in 1914.
“Russ & Daughters has been a part of the fabric of New York for 102 years. We hope to be around for at least as many more. The opportunity to continue our growth — within the Brooklyn Navy Yard, a 200-year-old force of industry and development in New York — is not only incredibly exciting, it’s a natural fit,” said Russ Federman.
