Homenature, a home furnishings and accessories store founded in Southampton, Long Island, has leased the former Giggles store on the Upper East Side.
The store has 85 feet of frontage on the east side of Lexington Avenue and wraps onto East 74th Street. It has 2,585 square feet on the ground and 1,642 square feet on the lower level.
RKF’s Gary Alterman, Comras and Carly Geller represented both sides of the transaction. The building owner, Eugene M. Grant & Co., was represented in-house by Kenneth Levine and had an asking rent of $250 per square foot.
Grant, a well-known real estate investor, passed away this month at the age of 99.
Homenature was founded by John Heilmann in the 1990s in Amagansett and has locations in Southampton and in the Flatiron District.
