Rock-Climbing Facility Takes 40K SF in Gowanus

The industrial stock in the evolving Brooklyn neighborhood of Gowanus proved to be an ideal location for The Cliffs, as it expands to a second Brooklyn site. The rock-climbing facility has signed a 25-year lease for 40,000 square feet at 233-239 Nevins St.

CBRE SVPs Brad Cohen and Jacob Tzfanya and senior associate John Kamall represented owner Atkins & Breskins Company, and negotiated the lease at their former firm, Eastern Consolidated. The Cliffs was represented by its exclusive broker, David Silberberg of Spaceworks Real Estate Advisors. The new space will be custom-built for The Cliffs.

“In addition to its vast warehouse inventory, Gowanus is ideally located at the center of four vibrant residential neighborhoods, Park Slope, Boerum Hill, Cobble Hill, and Carroll Gardens, and is near a major transportation hub at Atlantic Avenue, making it one of the most desirable destinations for experiential retail in New York City,” said Cohen.
