National Elevator Relocation
BJH advised National Elevator Cab and Door Corp. (National Elevator), New York City’s premier designer and manufacturer of elevator cabs and doors, on its application for discretionary benefits from the Empire State Development Corporation. National Elevator applied to defray a portion of the capital investment it is incurring as part of its move to a new, custom-renovated production facility at the Brooklyn Navy Yard. BJH also assisted with National Elevator’s lease negotiations at the Brooklyn Navy Yard, where it will relocate in 2019. Moving to the Brooklyn Navy Yard will allow National Elevator to offset increasing operating costs and retain all 100 of its current employees, including approximately 70 union members, and to continue to grow and service its clientele in New York City.
