The Ferrara Brothers concrete plant is gearing up to leave its longtime home on the shores of the Gowanus Canal.

The concrete company is moving to a new space in Sunset Park thanks to building permits filed by the city’s Economic Development Corp., DNAinfo reports. The EDC tapped Ferrara Brothers to build its own $15M facility through an RFP aimed at revitalizing a property at 750 Third Ave.

The company is known for supplying concrete for such projects as the 9/11 Memorial in Lower Manhattan and the recently opened Second Avenue Subway. The property has a slice of shoreline along New York Harbor, enabling the concrete maker to accept raw materials by barge.

Construction on the new facility is expected to take upward of a year. Gowanus Green, a mixed-use development that has been in the works since 2008, will be able to proceed once Ferrara’s current plant moves.

Just this week, the city announced a new initiative to bring a three-building manufacturing complex to Sunset Park’s waterfront.
