New Lab is located in the Brooklyn Navy Yard and is a beautifully renovated building that hosts many companies.

New Lab, a beautifully renovated building in the Brooklyn Navy Yard section of New York City, hosts multiple startup companies. Between office space and a huge atrium, the building offers tools such as a five-axis machine and 3D printers. Machine Design was invited to the complex, where we met some of the interesting new companies that call the space home.
