Welcome!: Michael Kelly is the new chief operating officer at the Brooklyn Navy Yard Development Corporation.
Standing O welcomes Michael Kelly as the new chief operating officer and executive vice president of the Brooklyn Navy Yard Development Corporation.
Kelly is an architect, educator, and not-for-profit executive with more than three decades of experience in public service. He has joined the corporation amidst its largest expansion in more than 50 years.
In his role, Kelly will be charged with overseeing the yard's world-class operations and property management team, which manages the industrial park's energy infrastructure, utilities, and building maintenance. His proven track record of raising property management and service standards at public assets — both distressed and in good financial standing — leadership, public service, and real-world operating knowledge will support the yard's continued mission.
The corporation is currently planning to expand to 30,000 jobs and add 5 million square feet of new manufacturing space in the coming years.
Standing O wishes Mr. Kelly success in his tenure.
Brooklyn Navy Yard Development Corporation [Building 92, 63 Flushing Ave. in Vinegar Hill (718) 907–5932].
