New Midtown Shake Shack Set To Open at 1700 Broadway

Michael Boonshoft • 8/14/2019
New York, NY – August 14, 2019 – Rockpoint Group, Shake Shack, and Cushman & Wakefield announced today that the fast casual chain signed a 2,000-square-foot fifteen year lease for a Midtown West location on the ground floor of 1700 Broadway.

Cushman & Wakefield’s Steven Soutendijk, Kenji Ota and Neil Seth represented the landlord, Rockpoint Group, in this transaction. Matthew Chmielecki and Preston Cannon from CBRE represented the tenant.

“The retail space at the corner of 53rd Street and Seventh Avenue will give Shake Shack tremendous presence, visibility and outdoor seating,” said Steven Soutendijk of Cushman & Wakefield. “With significant foot traffic from nearby office workers, tourists and residents, this location will be an unparalleled activation of vacant retail space and a previously-underutilized plaza area.

Along with adding a Shake Shack to the ground floor, Rockhill Management, an affiliate of Rockpoint Group, is opening a 10,000 square-foot amenity space designed by Fogarty Finger Architects for tenants of 1700 Broadway. The “1700 Broadway Club” will feature a 2,200-square-foot outdoor space overlooking Broadway from the 12th floor terrace. The Club will feature a bar with a full liquor license, a lounge area, and a variety of meeting and event spaces including an 800 square foot multi-purpose room, a boardroom with breakout area, and a Lifestyle Lab quiet workspace. The space will be available to Tenants via membership.

Rockpoint and Rockhill are also working with Fogarty Finger to design a new lobby and have recently completed three floors of prebuilt office space with availabilities ranging from 6,500 to 13,500 square feet.

The Shake Shack will feature all the Shack classics, including the ShackBurger®, crinkle-cut fries and hand-spun shakes, plus a selection of frozen custard concretes in collaboration with local food purveyors.

1700 Broadway, home to CBS Corporation, Gensler, and the Cardiovascular Research Foundation among others, is an ideal central location in Midtown Manhattan just a few blocks from Central Park and Columbus Circle. The property is in proximity to multiple subway stations including the 50th Street Station and 59th Street Columbus Circle Station.
