Spanish retailer Desigual takes over Fifth Avenue space from Sunglass Hut

Prime Fifth Avenue has scored a new retail tenant.

Spanish retailer Desigual has leased 5,200 square feet at 605 Fifth Ave. between East 48th and 49th streets, with 2,300 feet on the ground level and the rest lower-level storage. The current tenant, Sunglass Hut, is moving across the avenue.

Jason Greenstone, Michael O’Neill and Taylor Reynolds of Cushman & Wakefield represented the tenant. The owner’s rep was Roy Dervich of Breakwater Holdings. The companies declined or did not return requests for comment.

The Barcelona-based fashion brand recently reopened its flagship at 958 Sixth Ave. with a fully painted façade by Okuda San Miguel.
