The U.S. Navy may have pulled out of the Brooklyn Navy Yard seven decades ago, but the 300-acre site is humming with activity these days. Already a steadily growing manufacturing hub that encompasses everything from coffee roasting to film and TV production, the Navy Yard soon will become home to TAMI-sector office tenants as well, in what’s being touted as “a laboratory for the production of ideas and innovation.”

The building these tenants will call home is a ground-up project on the East River waterfront, now in the latter stages of construction by a partnership of Rudin Development and Boston Properties. Known as Dock 72, the 675,000-square-foot, 16-story facility will be one of the city’s largest office properties to be built outside of Manhattan in decades, and is projected to bring another 4,000 employees to the Navy Yard. Pictured above is an onsite diagram of what they’ll find at the new project.
