Chris Fogarty, co-founding principal, recently published an op-ed in Crain’s New York Business on the expansion of Gowanus — one of Brooklyn’s hottest areas. In the last decade, Gowanus has evolved from a place limited to artists and intrepids to a viable neighborhood with green space, a public waterfront, schools, residences and shopping. Fogarty Finger is vested in the development of the neighborhood, a former all-industrial and completely uninhabitable area that was once declared a Superfund site. The firm currently has several mixed-use residential projects under construction at 300 Nevins, 585 Union, and 251 Douglass. Learn how Chris believes that the revival of Gowanus can be a model for New York.
