Duggal Visual Solutions converts former metal foundry Building 268 into a green-business center
In May 2011 Brownstoner reports that Duggal Visual Solutions is converting Building 268, a former metal foundry in the Brooklyn Navy Yard. The $7 million project is meant to produce a 69,000-square-foot space for environmentally friendly business, which the Daily News calls a mix of think tank, museum, events hall and eco-product incubator. The building has been gutted, and Navy Yard officials say they aim to finish the build-out by the end of the year.
