Midtown's Citigroup Center Is Getting A Food Hall, Report Says

MIDTOWN MANHATTAN, NY — A well-known Midtown Manhattan office tower struck a deal to bring a large food hall to the building led by the operator of a popular food hall in Downtown Brooklyn, according to reports.

The new 10,000-square-foot food hall will grace the annex of the Citigroup Center on Madison Avenue, the Real Deal reported. Anna Castellani, the woman behind the DeKalb Market Hall which features 40 different vendors, will curate the new space, according to reports.

Retail space in Midtown skyscrapers doesn't come cheap, and this food hall is no exception. The 15-year lease for the space is being rented for about $1 million per year, the Real Deal reported.

Castellani's new food hall will be called "The Hugh" and is expected to open in the fall or winter months, according to the report. Her previous venture in Downtown Brooklyn drew an impressive list of vendors with names such as Ample Hills Creamery, Katz's Deli and Queens' Arepa Lady.
