California cool arrives in Meatpacking District.

In a deal that will enable Los Angeles-based women's fashion designer, Trina Turk, to showcase her designs in a hip downtown showroom, Turk has signed a lease for a 2,753 s/f space on the third floor of 416 West 13th Street, literally a block away from her store on Gansevoort Street in Manhattan's trendy Meatpacking District.

Isaacs and Company's David Baker together with Joel Isaacs negotiated the five-year lease on behalf of Trina Turk, while Matt Cohen and Roger Eulau of The Lansco Corporation represented the landlord, Greenway Mews Realty.

"We arranged for Trina to open her first Manhattan store at 67 Gansevoort Street a year ago and sales have been so phenomenal that she decided it was imperative to establish a showroom in nearby proximity," said Baker.

Turk, who creates garments that are, in her own words, "the opposite of what a wall-flower would wear," was featured in a recent The Apprentice episode when contestants were asked to design swimsuits comparable to her line.

"The landlord welcomes the additional showroom tenant to the current mix of apparel tenants in the building that include Theory and IISLI, among many others," said Cohen.

The P.F. Collier & Son Building at 416 West 13th Street is a mixed-use retail and commercial office building. The south-facing third floor space Trina Turk will be occupying offers abundant natural light with views of the Highline. Asking rents for showroom space in Meatpacking are in the $50-$75 range.
