Located in the Sunset Park area of Brooklyn NY this modular E-market pairs with the nearby Brooklyn Army Terminal which is being used as space to service startups, small manufacturing and entrepreneurs. Focusing on small business design 3 different modules are developed for both small retail, the booming e-market which needs less space for operations, and distribution to help both industries. Today, over 89% of America’s 30.4 million firms are small business-es which are operated by 20 employees or less. Enticing small business to Brooklyn Army Terminal can potentially mitigate the separation created by the local Gowanus Express-way that divides the culturally diverse communities of Sunset Park and the up-and-coming industrial center.
