ABT Leases 71,000-SF Warehouse

SECAUCUS, NJ-The New York City-based ballet company will use the space to store its sets and costumes, including historical artifacts.

By Eric Peterson | Updated on October 07, 2008

SECAUCUS, NJ-The American Ballet Theatre has leased 71,000 sf of warehouse space at 245 Secaucus Rd., a 189,000-sf industrial building off Exit 16E of the New Jersey Turnpike here. The signing represents a direct lease with owner and former occupant GMA Accessories Inc., which has consolidated its own multiple locations elsewhere in the region. The maker of men’s and women’s fashion accessories had utilized the building as a warehouse and costume shop.

For ABT, which is based just across the river in Manhattan, the signing encompasses all of one of four units in the building on the market for lease. It’s also an expansion, with the much-heralded ballet company moving over from its existing 50,000-sf warehouse and storage space in Long Island City, NY.

ABT will use its new space to store sets and costumes for its more than 200 productions. “We needed a facility that could be used to store and preserve the integrity of the historical costumes and sets that we use for these performances,” David Lansky, ABT’s director of operations, tells GlobeSt.com. “Many of these costumes and sets are considered historical and cultural artifacts.”
