To celebrate completion of $75m redevelopment, Huntington Shopping Center to host drone show and open house on November 8

Huntington, NY Huntington Shopping Center is celebrating the completion of an extensive $75 million redevelopment and welcomes the community with an open house complete with a drone light show on Friday, November 8, 2024. Guests can expect to enjoy a viewing area complete with beer, wine and bites from Burger Village and other tenants between 5-7pm. The event will commence with a 150-drone light show set to take flight over Whole Foods Market between 6:45-7pm.

“We’re looking forward to welcoming our neighbors to Huntington Shopping Center so they can see first-hand how the center has transformed over the past few years,” said Chris Fleming, vice president, asset management for Federal Realty. “The drone show is designed to not only highlight this compelling new destination, but also bring awareness to a collection of businesses that have recently opened their doors here.”

The 21-acre community shopping center is located adjacent to Walt Whitman Mall on Rte. 110 in the heart of Huntington’s main retail corridor. Since the redevelopment began, Huntington Shopping Center has opened 12 new tenants such as The Container Store, REI, J.Crew Factory, Just Salad, Burger Village, Paris Baguette, Whole Foods Market, and more. Currently 94% leased, once the redevelopment is complete, the center will total more than 210,000 s/f of retail.

During the event, guests are encouraged to explore all that is new around the center and can expect select stores/restaurants to offer special giveaways and discounts. Guests can choose to watch the show from their own vehicles, or from our pedestrian viewing area in the parking field adjacent to Just Salad. The viewing area will include a live DJ, beer and wine, food vendors and have on-site porta potties available for public use.
