Nestled in the center of Brooklyn Bridge Park between Piers 4 & 5, ONE°15 Brooklyn Marina is the newest marina in New York City, currently under construction with new docks being anchored and a state-of-the-art wave attenuation system now in place. Expected to accommodate private yachts and charter yachts ranging from 16’ to 250’ in length, the marina represents a joint venture between majority owner SUTL Group and Edgewater Resources, and is due to be completed this autumn, with a grand opening scheduled for spring 2016.
ONE°15 Brooklyn Marina
ONE°15 Brooklyn Marina will offer unparalleled water access to the local Brooklyn community, New Yorkers, as well as boating enthusiasts from all over the world. Moreover, the marina will dedicate two percent of marina revenue toward exceptional community programming that will make boating and kayaking available to residents of all ages, abilities, and incomes.
Arthur Tay, Chairman of SUTL Group, the Singapore-based, owner and operator of the award-winning ONE°15 Marina Club Singapore, commented: “Boating and the water have long been passions of mine and I recognized an opportunity in Singapore to bring the water and that lifestyle to a wider audience. As we looked to expand the brand into international destinations we identified the perfect opportunity in Brooklyn with the vibrant, lush public spaces of Brooklyn Bridge Park, Manhattan skyline backdrop and open water. Boaters and water enthusiasts from around the corner and around the world will feel at home at ONE°15 Brooklyn Marina.”
The new marina will be the first to be built in New York Harbor in the last 20 years. Its Community Dock will be one of the largest docks in New York City, making up nearly 25% of the square footage of dock space at ONE°15 Brooklyn Marina once completed. The Community Dock will offer free and affordable community boating, as well as a five-star facility, where these programs can thrive. Free and affordable boating experiences will be coordinated by the marina with its community partners, and a full program is in development.
“In New York City we are surrounded by water yet there are so few opportunities to interact with the harbor,” commented Regina Myer, President of Brooklyn Bridge Park. “This marina with its robust free and low cost programming, makes the waterfront accessible in new ways to even more New Yorkers and puts Brooklyn on the map for the global boating community.”
