Councilman Dan Garodnick and the EDC have worked out an agreement for the neighbor-contested Kips Bay garbage garage that includes incorporating facilities for biotech startups and health care industries in the full-block site bounded by First Avenue, FDR Drive, West 25th Street, and West 26th Street. Crain's reports that the agreement will bring a much larger development to the site than anticipated that will act as the center of the city's biotechnology industry. [Crain's]
