NEW YORK -- A new electric vehicle charging superhub opened Monday in South Williamsburg, Brooklyn. 

Mayor Eric Adams was on hand for the grand opening at Revel's new public EV charging station. 

The 15-stall fast charging station is located in the historic Dime Building, where Revel recently moved its corporate headquarters. 

It will be open to the public for free 24 hours a day, seven days a week for drivers with any brand of electric car.
