The leasing team of Faith Hope Consolo, chairman, and Joseph Aquino, executive vice president, of Prudential Douglas Elliman's Retail Leasing and Sales Division, exclusively represented the landlord and tenant in the expansion of legendary British scent and artisan gifts purveyor Penhaligon's U.S. flagship. The store, located along Madison Ave.'s Gold Coast at 870 Madison Ave., is the label's sole location in the U.S.
Having been situated at a desirable location between 70th and 71st Streets for eight years, the brand plans to enhance its visibility by renovating and expanding. The shop will revitalize its already chic décor to match its uniquely designed fragrance bottles and array of gifts.
"This Gold Coast thoroughfare is a veritable shopper's haven and home to well-to-do, discriminating singles and families, so it is wise for Penhaligon's to remain in this dominant location. Also, the store's unique façade makes it look like a freestanding townhouse in the middle of Madison Ave.," said Consolo.
