NYU-Poly Unveils Its DUMBO Incubator
Last Thursday night, hopeful occupants of NYU-Poly’s second New York City Economic Development Corporation (NYCEDC)-supported incubator, located in the Brooklyn neighborhood of DUMBO (Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass), had the opportunity to tour the freshly finished space at an open house event cohosted by the innovative DUMBO Improvement District (DUMBO BID). The offices, marked by generous windows, high ceilings and all of the ruggedly-sophisticated design elements including Herman Miller furnishings one would associate with a modern boutique office space, will focus on digital media and technology.
