The Roulston House-Gowanus

NEW YORK CITY—Industrie Capital Partners has begun a leasing campaign for Roulston House-Gowanus, the real estate organization's redevelopment of the largest mixed-use project in the Gowanus section of Brooklyn. The 200,000-square-foot, Class A office building reportedly will serve as the neighborhood's most significant option for TAMI tenants, as well as food and beverage retailers, providing creative work spaces and a dynamic after-hours destination.

The Roulston House's design is said to lend itself to different size tenants, and the property also includes up to 70,000 square feet of ground-floor retail space. It also offers four roof-deck options with outdoor seating and Brooklyn and Manhattan skyline views.

The Cushman & Wakefield team of Bruce Mosler, Mikael Nahmias, Joseph Cirone, Patrick Dugan, and Helen Paul has been retained as the building's exclusive leasing agent for the property's office space. Asking rent is $45 per square foot.

The brick-and-beam structure is accessible for most tenancies, offering 27,000-square-foot – 41,000-square-foot full-floor floorplates, with light on all four sides, and up to 15-foot ceiling heights throughout. Food and beverage tenants have an option to occupy column-free space and up to 25-foot ceilings, with private roof-deck space.

The property is accessible via the F, R, and G subway lines, the cross-canal bicycle routes at 9th St., 3rd St., and Union St., and multiple bus lines. Further, it is considered within driving access to the Brooklyn Battery Tunnel, Brooklyn Queens Expressway, and multiple bridges.

“Gowanus is the creative nexus of Brooklyn,” says Joseph Hamway of Industrie Capital Partners. “We are redeveloping Roulston House with the purpose of bringing together innovative businesses, creatives, and cultural endeavors under one roof, with multiple space options, in an inspiring atmosphere that will further electrify the neighborhood. We will have something here for everyone.”

Redevelopment of Roulston House has already begun, with tenant fit-outs projected to start late 2017. Several office tenants have expressed interest in taking space at the site and the developer also is speaking with several retailers, including larger-scale food and beverage operators.

“As the largest mixed-use project in Gowanus, Roulston House is the perfect setting for New York's expanding TAMI sector, comprised of creative firms that want to spend their time in a truly special property,” declares Cirone. “It is well located with access to great on-site and local amenities. This amazing project is ideal for a diversity of small- and medium-size office tenants, and/or a large anchor tenant looking for a 'wow' experience.”

He notes that tenants have additional incentives to take space at Roulston House: Gowanus has competitive lease rates compared with neighboring markets; the City is offering various tax abatements that can further reduce leasing costs and; ownership intends to provide finishes and work letters indicative of Class A space.

The property originally served as the Roulston family grocery warehouse during the first half of the 20th century. The building features several elements will be retained and beautified during redevelopment.
