Manhattan, NY New York City real estate development firm TF Cornerstone (TFC) has arranged a new lease signing with Solerum, an elevated Hawaiian-Caribbean-Asian fusion restaurant, at the base of luxury rental apartment building 2 Gold St. in the Financial District. Solerum signed a 20-year, 4,744 s/f lease at the base of the 53-story building, bringing a new dining destination to the neighborhood.

“As the Financial District continues to evolve into one of New York City’s most dynamic mixed-use neighborhoods, we’re committed to curating a retail experience that enhances the everyday lives of our residents, while serving the broader community,” said Steve Gonzalez, vice president of retail leasing at TFC. “Solerum’s distinctive concept and hospitality-driven dining experience make it an excellent addition to the neighborhood.”

“The opening of Solerum at 2 Gold Street represents our continued investment in New York City and the Financial District, a neighborhood that has played an important role in the growth of our restaurant business,” said Eoin Foyle, Solerum owner. “We’re proud to build on that foundation with a new concept that reflects our passion for exceptional hospitality and distinctive cuisine.”

2 Gold St. is a fully amenitized building offering studio to three-bedroom apartments. Its collection of lifestyle amenities include a glass-enclosed heated lap pool, fitness center and yoga room, co-working spaces, landscaped outdoor areas, and resident lounges.
