Earlier this week we predicted that Johnson Ave in East Williamsburg is very likely to dramatically change in the upcoming years as the underutilized industrial buildings allure developers with big ideas. 333 Johnson Ave was just purchased by a group of developers who plan on re-purposing the building as  office and retail “creative community;” their plans include a production of artisanal food on the site.

Yesterday, a real estate website New York Yimby reported that permits were filed on May 13 to convert a nondescript, two-storey building on 599 Johnson Ave into a nightclub with a rooftop bar. According to the website, Kossar + Garry Architects are handling the design, and the owner is Jon Killkelly, doing business as Bushwack 9 LLC.
