Brooklyn Cultural District building boom: the Marriott Autograph Collection Hotel, 95 Rockwell Place
Eye On Real Estate
Construction is percolating at development sites in a favorite arts-lovers’ neighborhood, the Brooklyn Cultural District.
This is the mini-neighborhood surrounding the Brooklyn Academy of Music that until recently was known as the BAM Cultural District.
We use the latter name as well when writing about the area to remind readers of the long years of effort that BAM’s former executive director Harvey Lichtenstein put in as the chairman of the BAM Local Development Corp., which worked with the city to bring the cultural district into being.
