At our new location in Bushwick, we will be providing our services to help prepare our new neighborhood for participation in tomorrow.
In our office on Morgan Ave. (generously donated by 3rd Ward) we will be creating a scenario we expect to take place in the future on the streets of Bushwick.
Here is the scene: the year is 2012. Manhattan is filled with tourists and middle age white people compose the 'fringe'.
Even the shops on 5th Avenue can no longer afford their rents in Manhattan, and they have been pushed into Brooklyn.
The companies formerly located on two blocks of 5th Avenue decide to relocate to find a new market. Even Williamsburg is too expensive, so many of the businesses located between 56 and 59 St. on 5th Avenue have bought property in Bushwick. Prada has moved to 198 Morgan Ave., as pictured above.
Don’t shoot the messenger!
To prepare the community for this likely scenario, our experts have created a realistic installation on Morgan Avenue.
Signage, posters, and handouts will be distributed to inform residents, employees, and business owners in the neighborhood of the hypothetical influx of corporate franchises.
To help inform and counsel the local community, we will open our office to the public for consultations about their feelings and possible experiences of the future.
We will offer advice about the future and a shoulder to cry on to clients with appointments during selected business hours.
In addition to complimentary consultations, we will be raffling off futuristic survival tools for members of the so-called up-and-coming corporate community.
Stay tuned for more details...
