Manhattan, NY GFP Real Estate, LLC negotiated seven new long-term lease transactions totaling 11,294 s/f at the Flatiron District’s 230 Fifth Ave., also known as The New York MarketCenter building. The specialty showroom building is the New York hub of the home textiles industry, home to over 140 home fashion accessories companies from across the globe.

GFP Real Estate principal Jane Gural-Senders and executive managing director Harvey Richer represented the landlord, GFP Real Estate, and the tenant in each of the direct lease transactions.

• JS Royal Home USA Inc., a privately owned wholesale textile manufacturer based in Charlotte, N.C. that provides products at factory-direct pricing, signed a five-year lease for 5,800 s/f on the 12th floor, doubling its footprint from its previous 2,600 s/f showroom space on the 11th floor of the building.

• Urban86 Inc., a producer of quality floor coverings and home decorations, signed a three-year lease for 1,342 s/f on the 10th floor.  The company, a previous tenant at the building, had closed its US-based showroom at the building during the pandemic and is pleased to be back at its original location.
