Lee & Associates NYC arranges 10-year lease for Snowflake Spa at 619 Ninth Ave. in Hell’s Kitchen

Manhattan, NY Lee & Associates NYC shared that Snowflake Spa, a spa and massage operator, has signed a 10-year lease for 2,200 s/f of ground-floor retail space, plus a full basement, at 619 Ninth Ave. in the city’s Hell’s Kitchen neighborhood.

Todd Korren and Milly Cheung of Lee & Associates NYC represented the tenant, Snowflake Group Inc., in the transaction.  The landlord, Howard Brachfeld, was represented by Kyle Fink and James Famularo of Meridian.

Snowflake Spa will occupy space formerly leased to Walgreens, transforming the location into a luxury spa and massage destination serving Hell’s Kitchen residents, workers and visitors.

The new location is part of Snowflake Group’s ongoing expansion across New York City.  The company operates five locations in Manhattan, including two in the surrounding neighborhood, and is planning additional locations in Manhattan and Brooklyn.

“Snowflake Spa has built a strong following in Manhattan, and this location represents an opportunity to continue growing its presence in Hell’s Kitchen,” said Todd Korren, principal, executive managing director and director of Leasing at Lee & Associates NYC. “The space offers excellent visibility along Ninth Ave., and the combination of ground-floor retail space and a full basement provides the flexibility the tenant needs to create a more expansive spa experience.”

Located at 619 Ninth Ave., the property is within Hell’s Kitchen, a neighborhood known for its established residential community, restaurant and retail offerings, and proximity to Midtown’s employment and entertainment centers.

The lease reflects continued demand from service-oriented retailers seeking well-located storefronts as they expand their neighborhood presence.
