The renovation has increased climbing terrain by 60%, including diverse bouldering routes for all skill levels. They’ve also added state-of-the-art fitness equipment to complement climbing training. Plus, there’s a suite of classes for beginners and intermediate climbers.

To guide the evolution, Bouldering Project Brooklyn relied on expertise from general manager Quinn Ventura and renowned climber Kevin Jorgeson, who now serves as the company's head of product.
