Industry City: See it like a tourist
Eye on Real Estate: The historic Sunset Park complex began its existence as Bush Terminal
It’s a waterfront wonderland for history-minded folks who feel nostalgic about Brooklyn’s industrial past. The artisanal furniture makers and chocolatiers who now occupy the complex are pretty cool, too.
Back in the day, it was known as Bush Terminal. The mammoth warren of warehouses on the Sunset Park shoreline was built more than a century ago by biz bigwig Irving T. Bush.
Today, 16 of Bush’s reinforced-concrete buildings comprise a complex that’s called Industry City.
