Wegmans confirmed that it signed a lease for a 58,874 square foot former Bed Bath and Beyond store in Manhattan at 1932 Broadway. The company currently operates one Manhattan store, which it opened last year at 770 Broadway, the former site of the Astor Place Kmart.
“Prior to opening our Astor Place store, we were working with Glenwood to lease space at 1932 Broadway. When that didn’t pan out, we had the opportunity to sign the lease for Astor Place,” a Wegmans spokesperson told Supermarket News.” Following the Astor Place opening, Danny Wegman learned the 1932 Broadway space was still available. He restarted negotiations and recently signed a long-term lease for the space.”
