Westbury, NY Samanea New York, the new retail, entertainment and dining destination located at 1500 Old Country Rd., has signed two new tenants. My Planet Living Center and Arteco Cabinetry will both open their doors in the first quarter of 2022.

The 5,075 s/f My Planet Living Center will offer consumers a new showroom concept featuring high-end building and design products. Its partners include German Kitchen Center, the largest national multi-brand chain of European kitchens in the U.S., and the My Planet Construction System, which will provide consumers with new, energy-efficient home building options. The space will include café tables for guests and AV equipment for online showroom visits. Through the center’s not-for-profit organization, MyPlanet, a portion of all proceeds will benefit local non-profits that help improve local communities. My Planet Living Center will be located on Samanea’s first floor entrance along Old Country Rd. This will be the center’s first Long Island location. Three other locations exist in Red Hook, Fort Lauderdale and Chicago.

The president of Arteco Cabinetry is Long Island architect Bill Ozen. The Samanea New York location will be the showroom’s first and will be located on the mall’s second floor. The 2,555 s/f showroom will feature high-end cabinet brands including Fabuwood, Diamond and Mid-Continent. MSI Surfaces and Silestone Countertops will also be sold.

“My Plant Living Center and Arteco Cabinetry nicely round out our growing roster of home and lifestyle tenants,” said Dominic Coluccio, chief leasing & development officer, Samanea New York.

Alongside his colleagues at property-owner Lesso Mall Development, Coluccio headed up lease negotiations for both new tenants, working with his brokerage team at Colliers International Jericho Office, including Herb Agin, Matthew Kucker and Jordan Baruch. Colliers represented both landlord and tenants.

“The Long Island market has seen an incredible increase in home renovations, and naturally we are excited to bring two kitchen and bath showrooms to Samanea New York’s growing tenant roster,” said Matthew Kucker, managing director, Long Island, Colliers International.
