New venue Brooklyn Storehouse opening at Brooklyn Navy Yard

A new venue, Brooklyn Storehouse, is opening soon at Brooklyn Navy Yards. It’s a project from the recently formed Transatlantic partnership of Broadwick, the event and venue company behind venues like Printworks London, and nightlife and production company TCE Presents (Teksupport, etc), and it’s set to officially open this month. The 104,000 square foot space hosted Ralph Lauren’s 2023 return to New York Fashion Week, and it’s where the upcoming Justice shows will happen on July 25 and 26. Other upcoming shows include Charlotte de Witte on June 22 and Eric Prdyz on July 6, with more to be announced. According to a press release, “The venue will be continuously reconfigured and transformed to create a wide array of spatial environments. Complete set builds, fashion shows, innovative, experience-led music shows, immersive art exhibitions, summits and brand activations represent just a few examples of activities that will be taking place within the fully customizable space… Brooklyn Storehouse’s rich industrial legacy will be preserved through its dramatic aesthetic of original raw concrete floors, exposed brick and hulking metalwork. Once the bustling hub of shipbuilding during World Wars I and II, Building 293’s immense iron struts offer a glimpse into the Navy Yard’s deep history, while its stunning waterfront location and iconic New York City skyline views ground the space firmly into the cultural fabric of Brooklyn.” See a few pictures below. TCE Presents founder Rob Toma says, “As a native New Yorker, born in the boroughs, creating something at this scale in this location, that will bring jobs and world class culture into the heart of Brooklyn, is a once in a lifetime opportunity. As independents, Broadwick and TCE have shared a similar approach in looking to create incredible experiences in iconic locations, and I believe our partnership will develop spaces that set a new standard across Pan America.” Luke Huxham, Director – Development & Place at Broadwick Group, adds, “We are committed to repurposing industrial spaces in an unexpected way that honors their past and creates lasting value for local areas and communities. The Brooklyn Navy Yard has a history that dates back to 1801, and we couldn’t be prouder to contribute to its legacy, working in partnership with The Brooklyn Navy Yard Development Corporation to generate jobs and economic impact for the city. Brooklyn Storehouse is an impressive hybrid home for culture. The top goal of our development is that it becomes a global institution and urban landmark. We strive to provide visitors with a broad range of experiences and content that will stick with them on an emotional level.” “The Brooklyn Navy Yard is pleased to partner with Broadwick and TCE to bring a new cultural events space in the heart of Brooklyn that will host a range of events from live music and art exhibitions to fashion shows and corporate events,” Lindsay Greene, Brooklyn Navy Yard Development Corporation President and CEO, says. “We’re excited to have this new entertainment venue online at the Yard in a manner that will add to our reputation as a unique public asset that is centered on growing industry, creating jobs and generating citywide economic impact.”
