New Upper West Side Location to be Retailer’s Fifth Location
New York, NY — Robert K. Futterman & Associates (RKF), the nation’s leading independent real estate firm specializing in retail leasing, investment sales and consulting services, has arranged a 525-square-foot lease with Joe - The Art of Coffee at 514 Columbus Avenue. The retailer is expected to open in spring 2009. Joe – The Art of Coffee currently has four operating locations in Manhattan with additional locations planned.
RKF Associate Izzy Anthony represented building ownership, 508 Columbus Properties LLC. Joe – The Art of Coffee was represented by Alexandra Turboff of BCD.
514 Columbus Avenue is situated on the west block of Columbus Avenue, between 84th and 85th streets. This Upper West Side market is a dense residential market. Area retailers, such as Laila Rowe, Jeffrey Stein Salon, Gristedes and Lenny’s, cater to the neighborhood’s affluent community.
“Joe – The Art of Coffee will have great visibility within the market, “ said Ms. Anthony. “The space features 20 feet of frontage and very high ceilings, which is rare for a space this size.”
“Joe – The Art of Coffee is excited to introduce their high-quality coffee to the Upper West Side,” said Ms. Turboff.
RKF is currently marketing 1,500 square feet of retail space still available at 508-512 Columbus Avenue. The remaining retail space can be leased as one unit or can be divided for up to three stores.
“With 60 feet of frontage and dramatic ceiling heights, the space provides great exposure in this established neighborhood,” added Ms. Anthony.
about Joe – The Art of Coffee:
Joe – The Art of Coffee, the award-winning West Village coffee shop fanatically devoted to serving the perfect cup of coffee, has four operating locations in Manhattan located at 141 Waverly Place, 9 East 13th Street, 405 West 23rd Street and in the Lexington Passage at Grand Central Station. They repeatedly have been voted “Best Coffee Bar” by New York Magazine (Best of New York) and The Village Voice (Best of New York City Awards). Indeed, unlike competitors’ employees, Joe’s baristas grind their espresso beans to order for freshness, skillfully measure and pack the grounds, and constantly monitor the brewing time. In addition to beverages, Joe – The Art of Coffee locations feature baked goods from a who’s-who of local suppliers, including Black Hound New York, Ceci-Cela, Doughnut Plant, and writer/actress Amy Sedaris, whose cupcakes are a favorite at the original location. www.joetheartofcoffee.com
