The Eagle regurgitates Tuesday's Crain's story.

The city’s Department of Information Technology and Telecommunications (DoITT) is seeking additional space in the MetroTech Center in Downtown Brooklyn.

According to a report Monday in Crain’s New York Business, the city agency needs 85,000 square feet of additional space to house 460 employees and a new data center, according to the article. It already occupies space at 11 MetroTech, which is near capacity.
