Trader Joe’s is reportedly in negotiations to lease a 20,000 sqft space at the base of 670 Columbus avenue. The space is at the base of the recently constructed retail between 92nd and 93rd street. There is already a Party City location in the retail strip.  100 West 93rd street is the postwar condo conversion above and rises 29 stories. Prices are about $1300 or so per square foot in the condo and the retail space was reportedly asking $450 psf according to LINK.

Just 4 blocks up, there is already a Whole Foods Market, in addition to Westside markets on Broadway at 97th street and 110th street.
