The space’s current tenant, Anthropologie, a subsidiary of retailer Urban Outfitters that focuses on womenswear and home goods, currently hold a lease that runs through 2021.
This deal came only a week after the shoe retailer Skechers signed a 15 year lease at another one of Sutton’s buildings, also on Fifth Ave, but much further up town. The store took 3, 500 square feet of space at 509 Fifth Ave. At a rent of more than $1, 000 per square foot the deal will be worth about $60 million.
