Navy Seizes Bush Terminal Industrial Buildings in Brooklyn
The Navy Department commandeered four eight-story Bush Stores buildings in the Bush Terminal complex from Second to Third Avenue, Brooklyn. The action affects one third of the plant housing 64 manufacturing firms and about 4,500 workers, with notices to vacate by December 1, 1918. Roosevelt says the move was urgent after exhausting other channels, while Irving T. Bush laments the destruction of years of work. The War Department had already taken 118 warehouses and piers earlier this year.
