Uovo is proposing a 240,000 sq. ft facility in Bushwick to expand its role in art logistics, complementing an existing space opened in 2020. The facility will feature climate-controlled storage for art and other items, alongside viewing galleries and project spaces. While the project has received support from the local community board, some residents express concerns over exacerbating housing shortages and increasing rental costs. An open letter circulating in the community challenges the project's benefits, arguing it favors private development over the needs of residents.
