2026 Developing Long Island: The Franklin

Garden City, NY The Franklin is a boutique, new-construction Class A office building at 1051 Franklin Ave., developed by Scott Minuta and Matt Schwartz and managed by Regus. Spanning three floors and 19,160 s/f, the property offers fully equipped, full-service office suites on flexible lease terms, along with stylish conference rooms, kitchen amenities, elevator service, IT support, mail handling, on-site parking and 24/7 secure access. Businesses seeking a prestigious Garden City address without committing to a full-time suite can also take advantage of virtual office memberships.

Positioned near the Nassau County seat and the Garden City Long Island Rail Road station, The Franklin gives tenants a central, accessible location in one of Long Island’s most sought-after business corridors. The building celebrated its grand opening in August 2026 with a ribbon-cutting ceremony and open house held in partnership with the Garden City Chamber of Commerce, welcoming a diverse roster of tenants spanning legal, financial, insurance, wellness and nonprofit services, including Baby Essentials of Long Island.
