The tenant “felt that the neighborhood was a strong traffic generator for their demographic, thanks to the nearby New School and all of the name brand retailers coming to the area,” Kelly Gedinsky of Winick Realty Group said in a prepared statement. “They are excited to capitalize on the Sixth Avenue corridor.”
Ms. Gedinsky represented the landlord, CB Developers, in the transaction. Andrew Mandell and Richard Skulnik of Ripco represented the tenant. The space also includes a 1,000-square-foot basement.
“There is a PATH station nearby, as well as the 1, F and L trains so this store will be very accessible by people coming from all over the city,” Ms. Gedinsky said.
