Something extraordinary: New York's only store and stage that will become the new tenant's DTC superstore, omnichannel sales monster, social media superstar, and product launching pad. It's the trade area's most prominent retail store (formerly Chase) with an outdoor stage (the building's world-renowned plaza/fountain) that can be used for product introductions, product demonstrations, events, broadcasts, and other programming front and center to the largest daily audience in the nation(350,000+ people). Footfalls in front (west side of 6th Avenue) average 80,000 a day, with much more during peak summer and Christmas. The east side of 6th adds at least an equal amount of foot traffic (for 160,000+ total). Fountain's famous ornamental Christmas balls generate millions of social media impressions across the world. Ground and lower level, 20,404 total square feet (not divisible), 30 and 16-foot ceilings, double corner exposure, and 225 feet frontage. Nothing like this is available in the US.

PROPERTY FACTS
PROPERTY OVERVIEW
Welcome to 1251 Avenue of the Americas, an extraordinary building that is one of New York City’s only indoor and outdoor stores. This one-of-a-kind opportunity is prominently positioned for a highly visible retail space (which was formerly Chase at 20,414 square feet), with a center stage - the building's renowned plaza/fountain. The plaza and fountain area can be activated and programmed for product introductions, product demonstrations, promotions, and events. This enables interested lessees to acquire the new, retain the loyal, recapture the lost, and convert the casual on the grandest of scales, front and center, to the nation's most prominent Gen X, Gen Y, and Gen Z customer base. This is a premier opportunity to find space catering to direct-to-consumer (DTC) superstore operations, an omnichannel sales monster, a social media megastar, a US brand showcase, and a product launching pad. Set back over 100 feet from the Avenue of the Americas, the tower soars above its open, landscaped plaza. Its arcade level interconnects with the Rockefeller Center concourse and is just steps away from dozens of shops and major subway lines. It has a high window-to-floor area ratio, large efficient floor plates, entrances on 49th and 50th Streets, and a 725-car garage.
