Brooklyn
A NEW ERA
Brooklyn is flourishing and leading New York City as the largest and fastest growing borough in multiple categories for its thriving community-life, vibrant technology hub, and high-quality apartments.
This accelerated growth sets the stage for an ideal opportunity for Apple at Kings Plaza.
Kings Plaza OPTIMALLY LOCATED
Kings Plaza is perfectly positioned in the heart of Southern Brooklyn. It is a major transportation hub with nearly 40K people on 1K buses stopping at the center every day. Multi-million-dollar neighborhoods of Marine Park, Mill Beach, Bensonhurst, Bay Ridge and Dyker Heights are right in Kings Plaza’s backyard, and located only three miles away is the Mill Basin Bridge – the most heavily utilized of the ten bridges in Brooklyn with 141K vehicles per day. Plus, nearby the center are 20 universities and colleges with 100K+ students.
Kings Plaza
A NOTABLE INFLUENCER
Kings Plaza is the premier and only super-regional shopping center in the energetic Brooklyn borough. In 2018, the former Sears box was reimagined, attracting successful brands Primark, Zara, Burlington and Target to thrive in its market. At the center of the redeveloped building is a four-story glass atrium, a new façade, exterior improvements and a new entry with visual and vertical connections to all four levels.
Continuing the momentum, Kings Plaza will further transform, redeveloping the Best Buy box into a community-driven entertainment and dining destination.

Kings Plaza + Apple
IN SYNC
Apple has already made its impact on Brooklyn with two successful locations. Kings Plaza, with its highly trafficked location and proven track record with best-in-class brands, would provide Apple with an exceptional third location in the vibrant borough where southern Brooklyn residents are underserved by an Apple store in this part of the market.
Apple MARKET OPPORTUNITY
Kings Plaza does not have a market overlap with an Apple Store within a 15-min drive time. Shoppers must drive at least 45 minutes in traffic to the nearest Apple store – providing a perfect opportunity for Apple to serve the southern Brooklyn community.
