Broad Street Development (BSD has signed a long-term lease with international coffee retailer Luckin Coffee at 184 Thompson St., a 135-unit condominium building with 5,809 square feet of street-level retail fronting Bleecker Street. Founded in Beijing in 2017, the Luckin Coffee brand currently operates 26,000 locations worldwide. This Greenwich Village outpost will be the fifth Manhattan location for Luckin Coffee.
“This location gives our retail partners exposure to the upwardly mobile residents and the NYU student demographic that demands trendy, tech-forward service experiences found in this vibrant enclave of Greenwich Village,” said Elliot Chalme, VP of BSD. “The NYU retail corridor sees incredible foot traffic while the growing mix of retailers at 184 Thompson continues to attract emerging and established brands interested in tapping that ‘now crowd’ demographic as they seek speed and substance combined with a curated, convenient experience.”
David Green and Albert Halawani of KSR represented Luckin Coffee. Brandon Berger, Zach Nathan, Ike Bibi and Carol Aziz, also of KSR, represented BSD alongside an internal team of Chalme, David Israni and Ray Chalme.
