Location: Leica, 406 W 13th St., New York, NY
Leica’s second flagship store in NYC’s Meatpacking District combines the essence of a retail space and an art gallery, hosting multiple areas for relaxation and private events. Spanning 1,600 square feet over two floors with soaring 30-foot ceilings, this gracefully designed location features a ground floor dedicated to showcasing Leica’s iconic products. Adjacent to this area is a rear gallery, artfully curated to exhibit complementary artwork. For exclusive gatherings, a VIP room offers privacy and a touch of sophistication.
During the renovation process, Bestmark National worked closely with Schimenti Construction to enhance the space with modern amenities, including a cellar office for operational efficiency, a kitchenette, restroom vanities, and stylish doors throughout. Upstairs, the mezzanine level hosts a vibrant atmosphere centered around a state-of-the-art DJ booth and a sleek bar complete with base storage cabinets. Ample seating areas are strategically placed under skylights, creating a welcoming environment for guests to enjoy the ambiance and engage with Leica’s heritage of precision and innovation.
