Bridge Street Cleaners Moves to Navy Yard, Livingston St.
Bridge Street Cleaners is moving into new space at the Brooklyn Navy Yard and 204 Livingston Street, part of the BE@Schermerhorn complex by developer SDS Procida Development Group. This would be the second move as a result of new development for the 79-year-old cleaners, which is currently located at 401 Bridge Street between Willoughby and Fulton Streets, a block almost entirely under development. Bridge Street Cleaner's store is part of the United American Land air rights deal we've previously reported on. Ingram & Hebron Realty, which negotiated the lease, said the Livingston rent is $80 per square foot, "a new high rent for this portion of the Livingston Street corridor." According to the brokerage's press release, Bridge Street Cleaners has also leased Building 74 at the Brooklyn Navy Yard, where owner Victoria Aviles is relocating her entire cleaning plant. In addition to dry cleaning, the business does alterations; wedding and evening gown cleaning; museum-quality preservation; and fire, flood and smoke damage restoration.

Geez, Victoria is the president of the business improvement district. If she's getting kicked from building to building to building--and paying "a new high rent" to boot--what chance does some unconnected schmoe have downtown? Good luck to FUREE (see other thread).
