[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Brooklyn may be New York\u2019s hippest borough to live or start a business. It just doesn\u2019t hold that much cachet for the city\u2019s fashion industry.<\/p>\n

Mayor Bill de Blasio says he wants to provide apparel makers affordable space to grow by luring them out of midtown Manhattan\u2019s garment district and into cheaper, city-owned warehouses in Brooklyn. As part of his plan, the city would end a 1987 zoning law that has protected manufacturing use and limited office space in the district.<\/p>\n

Manhattan clothing makers, designers and merchants are not on board.<\/p>\n
