Mayor Eric Adams Administration is using the Brooklyn Army Terminal for a one hundred million dollar climate innovation hub.
Andrew Kimball, the President of the city's Economic Development Corporation says this will help grow green technology startups and businesses.
"To not only tackle climate change but really adapt our economy, make this opportunity the opportunity to build the inclusive equitable economy of the future."
The hub will accelerate commercialization pathways for climate tech startups and eventually support five thousand new permanent jobs and train more than two thousand New Yorkers. It's a key part to Mayor Adams' Green Economy Action Plan.
