Resident catchment is expanding—tenants benefit from an inflow of commuters, younger professionals and creative households wanting lifestyle-oriented amenities combined with proximity to Manhattan transit.
Nearby Retail & Tenant Synergies
While a full tenant roster should be verified, this location enjoys proximity to restaurants, cafés, creative studios, loft-style apartments, and the mixed-use energy of downtown Yonkers. A retailer or café will benefit from foot-traffic, multi-residential living and office professionals in the area.
Additionally, with nearby residential density ramping, early-entry leasing provides brand visibility ahead of the competition.
Why Now Is the Right Time to Lease
Secure your location while leasing rates are still nascent—rent above at $5,000/month positions you for value capture as the area continues to mature.

Ideal Uses
Boutiques, lifestyle cafés or showrooms, fitness/creative studios, specialty retail, showroom plus office operations—this location fits tenants who want ground-floor exposure and upstairs office/overflow space.
