Park Tower Group announced an agreement with Pure Green, a fast-growing cold pressed juice and smoothie chain, to open its newest location at Greenpoint Landing, a 22-acre development stretching for half a mile along Brooklyn’s waterfront.
The popular shop, which features a variety of healthy food offerings including wellness shots, smoothies, acai and pitaya bowls, and more, will occupy an 840 s/f storefront at 5 Blue Slip, a space that directly overlooks the recently renovated and expanded Newtown Barge Park and esplanade.
Pure Green at Greenpoint Landing will be the brand’s second Brooklyn location, and is expected to be open to the public starting this summer.
