M-A-C Cosmetics leases Manhattan location

New York — M-A-C Cosmetics has signed a long-term lease at 853 Broadway in Manhattan’s Union Square, according to The Feil Organization, the building’s owner and manager. RKF represented M-A-C in the lease negotiations. The retailer plans to open in time for the 2014 holiday shopping season.



M-A-C will occupy a space on the ground floor and project a two-level storefront plus 14 ft. of frontage along 14th Street, giving it excellent visibility.



Located at the southwest corner of Broadway and 14th Street, the 157,000-sq.-ft. 853 Broadway is located in a rapidly growing retail district in and around Union Square.



Pedestrian traffic totals 350,000 people daily, and nearly 250,000 consumers visit the nearby Union Square Greenmarket weekly. The Union Square subway station is the fourth busiest in New York City, with more than 34 million riders yearly.



A façade renovation for the first five floors of the 21-floor office building will be completed in July. In addition, Feil is upgrading the rest of the storefront around M-A-C.
