At Schuckman Realty, we believe that great spaces can honor their origins while evolving to meet modern demands. This philosophy drives our exciting redevelopment of The Shops Broadway. Originally built in 1956 as an open-air lifestyle center, the property was a vibrant hub for the community. Now, through modern planning, we are reimagining it for the 21st century, blending retail, dining, and entertainment to create a dynamic destination.
On October 29th, we had the pleasure of hosting the Commercial Industrial Brokers Society (CIBS) networking event at the newly rebranded Shops Broadway. Nearly 200 professionals gathered to hear KABR Group and BTF Capital unveil their exciting vision for the redevelopment. The event was a resounding success, and we are grateful for the enthusiastic response from the brokerage community.
A New Era for The Shops on Broadway
This transformation is about returning the property to its roots as an open-air destination, while also bringing it into the modern era with thoughtful design and planning. Key highlights of the redevelopment include:
– A new 105,000-square-foot retail building
– Demolition of the former Macy’s building to make way for new parking solutions and improved accessibility.
– The District, an entertainment hub that will feature Round1 and a 70,000-square-foot, three-story building designed for restaurants.
– Ongoing discussions with theater operators to continue offering a cinema experience within the new District space.
A Vision Rooted in History, Designed for the Future
The redevelopment of The Shops Broadway is not just about new buildings—it’s about creating a place for the community to gather and connect. Our vision combines the best aspects of the property’s original open-air layout with the amenities and experiences today’s consumers expect. This reimagining will bring new energy to the property and support the economic vitality of Nassau County.
A Special Thank You to Our Team
We would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to the incredible team at Schuckman Realty who helped plan and execute the CIBS networking event: Brian Boker, Josephine Keith, Denise Norcia, Jessica Vilmenay, Jack Pierce, Stephanie Cordts, and Brianna Spaziante. Your dedication and hard work made this event possible, and we are grateful for your efforts.
An Ideal Location with Tremendous Potential
Located in the heart of Nassau County, The Shops Broadway enjoys exceptional accessibility. It is just minutes from the Northern State Parkway and the Long Island Expressway, and it benefits from close proximity to the Hicksville train station, the busiest station in Nassau County. With major retailers like Ikea and Target already drawing visitors, the redevelopment will position The Shops on Broadway as a premier destination for the region.
A Successful Event and Exciting Collaborations
The CIBS networking event was an important step in sharing our vision with the brokerage community. We are proud of the turnout and the positive feedback we received. A special thank you goes to Ari Malul, who served as master of ceremonies and kept the event flowing smoothly.
Looking Forward to the Future
We are excited to bring The Shops on Broadway to life and look forward to working with our partners and the community to make this vision a reality. Our goal is to create a vibrant space where people can shop, dine, and connect, celebrating both the property’s history and its bright future.
Thank you to everyone who attended the event and shared in our excitement. Stay tuned for more updates as we continue this journey toward the future!
