Gowanus will soon be getting another brewery with Focal Point Brewery inking a 5,000-square-foot lease in mid-March at 420 Carroll St. The spot should open sometime this year. Igloo’s Managing Director Adam Joly, who was the broker on that deal, also recently secured leases with a wine shop and a community-focused architecture and design hub at the property. “From a retail standpoint, it’s unique where everything is sort of coming online at the same time,” Joly said. “Given how long it takes to plan new retail concepts and fill out those spaces, we feel like the opportunity is really right now to get into this market.”
