Making it Here: Long Island City Neighborhood Tour
As the Hunters Point area of Long Island City has changed from an industrial to a residential neighborhood, some smaller manufacturers are taking root in the new mix as the area’s Industrial Business Zone still holds. Join Vertical Urban Factory’s Nina Rappaport for a walking tour of historic industrial sites, from the former power station to the gantries and the iconic Pepsi Sign, and visit several niche manufacturers thriving in the area today, including a brewery, a fabricator, and a woodworker.
