Lidl US has announced a new location in New York City.
The 23,000-square-foot store, which is expected to open in summer 2025, will be Lidl’s third in Manhattan. The new store will be located at 408 Grand Street on the city’s Lower East Side.
Construction will begin on the property soon, Lidl said in a press release.
Lidl signed a lease agreement for the location with affordable housing non-profit Grand Street Guild.
“We took a thoughtful and deliberate approach to finding the ideal group to effectively utilize this retail space,” said Kevin Cronin, chair of the board of directors for Grand Street Guild, in a statement. “Given our long history of service to the residents of our buildings and the surrounding neighborhood, we could not be more pleased in welcoming Lidl US, and we are especially gratified by their robust approach to and practice of corporate social responsibility.”
Lidl will use Marin Architects as the official architects for the project, and CBRE represented the retailer in the transaction.
In May 2023, Lidl announced plans for its second Manhattan location in the Chelsea neighborhood, set to open in 2026. The grocer’s first Manhattan store opened in Harlem in 2022.
