The Brooklyn Navy Yard’s Perry Building will be home to art restoration firm SurroundArt once it opens up this summer. Interiors for the 89,000-square-foot space, which is aiming for a LEED Silver under USGBC’s Core and Shell program, were designed by Steven Kratchman Architect, while the exterior of the building is being executed by Stantec. Last week, Stantec announced some details on the project’s renewable energy features, which will include a photovoltaic and wind power pilot program. The firm is partnering with National Grid Energy Services in order to install a number of solar panels and wind turbines on the Perry Building’s roof.

SurroundArt Selects Steven Kratchman Architect for Green Museum Resource Center at Brooklyn Navy Yard
Last fall, SurroundArt, which stores and restores works of art, as well as supplies back-end back-end support for high-end art exhibitions, signed a lease for 89,000 square feet of space at the Navy Yard’s LEED-CS Silver Perry Building, designed by Vollmer Associates, which is currently under construction. The project is touting itself as the first industrial building in the country to house multiple tenants and achieve a LEED Silver rating. Yesterday, SurroundArt announced that it has retained Steven Kratchman Architect for the design of its new space (the Perry Building is a core and shell project, so Kratchman will work with SurroundArt to fit out the interior).
