The space used to belong to Margherita NYC, but after searching all over the city (think: more than 20 different spots), owners Massimo Laveglia, Nick Baglivo, and Manuel Jimenez finally found a corner that felt like a good fit. With roots that run from Harlem deliveries to pizza shop partnership, the team wanted a spot where locals and tourists could both find their way to a great slice.<\/p>\n<p>Sure, Little Italy is a magnet for sightseers, but the crew is betting that quality slices can win over everyone, not just the out-of-towners.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>How Did We Get Here?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>L\u2019Industrie first made headlines at their West Village outpost in 2023, quickly standing out for their balanced pies and clever twists on classic toppings\u2014truffle oil, squishy fresh Burrata, and other inventive combos.
