NEW YORK — Winick Realty Group has completed retail leasing for TF Cornerstone's East Coast Development, a mixed-use project on the Long Island City Waterfront. The large project consists of six buildings with approximately 3,000 apartments and the largest retail development in Long Island City.
Eight retail leases cover retail space in five of the buildings: 4545 Center Boulevard, 4540 Center Boulevard, 4610, 4615 and 4630 Center Boulevard.
At 4545 Center Boulevard, the newly signed tenants reflect the changing demographics of the area with a focus on health and wellness and family. I Love Kickboxing leased a 2,967-sq. ft. studio.
