Totaling 19,700 SF, 88 Battery Place aka 2 South End Ave aka 1 Third Place, is the full retail space at The Cove Club, in Battery Park City — with water views along the pedestrian path of the Hudson River.
The available space has three parts: 8,000 SF of high ceiling ground retail facing the Hudson River with the entrance of 2 South End Ave; 700 SF of ground retail space facing 88 Battery Place; 11,000 SF of lower level space with high ceilings, elevators, it's own garage entrance and space cut-outs that bring light in from the ground floor windows and an entrance at 1 Third Place. The first segment was built out as a preschool and the second and third segments are raw space.
Facing the Hudson River Waterfront, in Battery Park City, at the base of luxury residential tower The Cove Club, this is one of very few retail spaces available for lease in the 10280 zip code.
This location could be perfect for a large national pharmacy brand -- CVS, Duane Reade or Rite-Aid -- as there are few nearby on the map. It would be suitable for a large grocery store, but there are already two in close proximity.
- The ground retail at the 2 South End Ave entrance was a children's school finished with polished cement floors and ceiling treatments that make use of the 15-foot height in sections.
- From the lower level here, two cutout spaces give 30-foot height views to the ground floor windows. The cavernous lower level is connected with freight and passenger elevators and its own double-wide garage door to the outside. There is also a second ground level, side door entrance at 1 Third Place, seen in the photos.
- The smaller 700 SF space entered from Battery Place was approved for a liquor license as an upscale sushi restaurant, but that plan was withdrawn due to the pandemic.
Owner would prefer one large tenant for the combined space or creative uses that can use the individual spaces without subdividing each.
Asking $88 PSF.
