Former Bushwick Bank Is Latest Addition To Area's New Wave Of Office Space

Transition Acquisitions is planning to transform the five-story, 58k SF Globe Exchange Bank building at 815 Broadway in Bushwick into office space.

The property, currently vacant, will feature roughly 42k SF of office space as well as 16k SF of retail and space for medical offices below ground when it's finished, NY Yimby reports.
