Aquino of JAACRES brings Collette Home to 3,700 s/f retail showroom and store at 1325-1343 Madison Ave.

Manhattan, NY Collette Luxury Home Consignment has signed a 10-year lease on a 3,700 s/f furniture retail showroom and store, along with 50 ft. of frontage, at 1325-1343 Madison Ave. Joseph Aquino, president of JAACRES, represented Collette Home in the transaction.

This will be Collette Luxury Home’s first NYC location. Collette Home is a consignment emporium of fine furnishings and home accessories, with several locations in the Hamptons. Its customers include designers, architects, and consumers, and its pieces have found their way into many beach homes and mansions. Its offerings regularly include both name-brand furniture collection, and one-of-a-kind pieces, all available for delivery. Founder Tish Collette began her consignment business by focusing on women’s luxury clothing, and has built her Home Collette Consignment from that foundation.

Aquino recently leased another store in the same building, to Ice Blue, a luxury women’s apparel boutique. In the Ice Blue/Mirabelle location, he represented the tenant and the individual retail condo owner, Adlin Realty. In Collette transaction, Gary, Rick, and Chris Dana, from the commercial retail department of Douglas Elliman, represented the retail condo property owner.

This new Carnegie Hill location will be smaller than Collette Home’s Hamptons showrooms, but will benefit by closer proximity to Manhattan’s designer furniture district.
