a pet care service is coming to Roosevelt Island's 544 Main Street

and is expected to open in Spring 2019.

According to this press release today from Shops On Main Street Retail Master Leaseholder Hudson Related:

Hudson Related Retail LLC today announced the signing of pet care service PupCulture to a 10-year, 3,792-square foot lease at 544 Main Street, located along Roosevelt Island’s Shops on Main retail corridor. The addition of PupCulture will add to the growing, eclectic mix of storefronts at the Shops on Main, which include Mexican restaurant Onda, bubble tea shop BubbleCool and the forthcoming Liukoshui hot pot restaurant. Soon, Shops on Main visitors will be able to take their pets to the full-service outlet for day-care, grooming, walking and other pet needs. This will be PupCulture’s third location, adding to storefronts on Hudson Street in SoHo and Broome Street in Tribeca. PupCulture at 544 Main Street is expected to open in spring 2019.

“As soon as our team stumbled upon PupCulture, I knew we had to have them on Roosevelt Island,” said Jorge L. Jorge, Director of Leasing & Sales at Lisa Management. “This one-stop-shop for pet supplies will bring a needed service for the island’s pet lovers.”

“A pet shop has been on the wish list of island residents for many years,” said Alex Kaplan, Project Manager at The Hudson Companies. “I am glad we were able to fulfill that need.”

“Our goal is to provide a unique amenity of highest quality pet services (daycare, boarding, grooming, walking and pet sitting services) to the residents of Roosevelt Island and the surrounding neighborhoods,” said Ibrahim Almiheh, President of PupCulture.

David Ravvin of Lisa Management Inc. represented both Hudson Related Retail LLC and PupCulture in the deal. The Shops on Main also feature a salon, dry cleaner, wine shop, diner and Chinese restaurant, all of which add to the variety of retail along the corridor.

In March Lisa Management, the property management arm of The Hudson Companies, Inc, took over all marketing and leasing for the remaining available spaces on Main Street. These include 2,000 square feet at 521 Main St., 2,229 square feet at 563 Main St., and 2,172 square feet at 544 Main St. As property managers of the Shops on Main since 2002, Lisa Management is building on its extensive knowledge of Roosevelt Island retail in this expanded role.
