In a transaction arranged by CBRE, Bambi Baby, a national retailer selling baby furniture, nursery sets, strollers, car seats, cribs, bedding and other related products, will open its first New York City store at 655 Sixth Ave. The retailer will occupy 900 square feet of ground-floor space and 8,500 square feet in the lower level of the property.
The CBRE team of Jordan Kaplan, Jessica Tauber, and Eric Gelber represented Bambi Baby in the negotiations. The property owner, United American Land, was represented in-house by Jack Laboz, and Aric Trakhtenberg and Ravi Idnani of Newmark.
“Bambi Baby wanted to open its first flagship location in New York City, and the historic Ladies Mile District in the heart of Chelsea made perfect sense,” said Kaplan. “We are thrilled we were able to secure this amazing space for our client. It is incredibly located, easily accessible, and will be an incredible gain for families in the greater New York City market.”
Bambi Baby has been serving new parents and growing families for more than 49 years, launching in 1976 with a small store in West New York, N.J. It since has expanded into five brick-and-mortar store locations.
