“Brooklyn Storehouse was conceived as a meanwhile project — a temporary activation of a site within the Brooklyn Navy Yard during a period of transition,” Brooklyn Storehouse representatives tell Billboard . “Our tenancy was always time-limited, and BNYDC [Brooklyn Navy Yard Development Corporation] has now confirmed its plans for the site, which will see it repurposed for climate infrastructure and clean energy production in line with the Yard’s mission.

“This is part of the nature of working with adaptive, found spaces, where tenancies are often inherently temporary,” the rep continues. “We’re proud of what we built there, and our final shows — culminating in a Halloween weekend closing event. We’re grateful to BNYDC for the opportunity and to everyone who made Brooklyn Storehouse what it was.”

Brooklyn Storehouse exists within the Brooklyn Navy Yard, a 300-acre industrial waterfront complex, and was first used for shipbuilding during World War I and II. The venue was a partnership between indie promoters independent TCE Presents, the parent company of event producer Teksupport and U.K.-based live events company Broadwick Live.
