NJ's First Brides By Young Coming To Bergen County

From Cushman & Wakefield:

Rochelle Park, N.J., Oct. 28, 2019 – Brides by Young will join co-tenant Starbucks at Shops at Liberty Plaza in Rochelle Park, bringing the newly constructed, Route 17 retail property to full occupancy, announced Cushman & Wakefield. The commercial real estate services firm’s New Jersey retail leasing team, headed by David Townes and Alana Friedman, represented the landlord, Alesso Holding Co., in the 5,650-square-foot, long-term transaction.

The salon at Shops at Liberty Plaza will be Brides by Young’s third dedicated bridal salon and its first in New Jersey. The brand is distinguished as the world’s largest “curvy” bridal boutique, with sample sizes ranging from 14 to 34 and more than 400 dress styles in each store. Patrick Varelas from RE/MAX Traditions Real Estate served as tenant broker for Brides by Young in the Rochelle Park lease.

“Our team produced multiple offers on this property – both for full occupancy and subdivisions of the remaining vacancy,” Townes said. “Shops at Liberty Plaza checks every box. It offers brand-new construction with attractive modern storefronts, direct access from Route 17 and the benefit of a daily traffic count exceeding 121,000 vehicles.”

Friedman added that specialty retailers looking to plant their flag in a new market often flock to the highly coveted Route 17 corridor, and Brides by Young was no exception. “This market is highly sought after due to its long-standing status as a major regional retail hub, with record-breaking sales numbers, traffic counts and outstanding accessibility,” she noted. “As brokers, we recognize a need for specialty offerings more and more, and understand the great demand for quality within the Greater Bergen County market. This new tenant is a great fit for the marketplace.”
