At 40,000 square feet of space the project will be the largest retail space of this kind an area, which has been underserved for a long time\u2014even though rent prices have been traditionally lower here than in other boroughs.<\/p>\n<p>The Crossing is being built on a 19,000-square-foot triangular that used to serve as a gas station with enclosed workshop. According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.propertyshark.com\/mason\/OnePageReports\/report.html?propkey=48742&amp;newwindow=true\">PropertyShark<\/a>, the property is owned by the Prusik Group, a retail development and investment company who previously worked with BDG to co-develop two urban retail projects in the New York City metropolitan area.<\/p>\n<p>In a press release, BDG said several brand names already signed as tenants at The Crossing.
