HUDSON Managing Principal Jason Gerbsman has arranged a new lease for Ruby & Jenna in the former Calypso space in Southampton, NY. The new location at 24 Jobs Lane is the fourth lease that Mr. Gerbsman has arranged for the mother-daughter-owned women’s fashion chain and its twelfth store in the Tri-State area, joining others in such affluent enclaves as Greenwich, CT, Marlton, NJ, Closter, NY, and Roslyn, NY.

The Southampton store is a relocation for Ruby & Jenna, which was seeking a larger space in that market.

“Ruby & Jenna is a ‘best-in-class’ ladies apparel chain, with a core focus on quality real estate in higher-end demographics,” says Mr. Gerbsman. “While many retailers today are struggling to find their identity and closing stores, Ruby & Jenna has found its niche and is thriving. I am fortunate to have the opportunity to work with such a dynamic and relevant brand. The Lubel family is an absolute pleasure to work with and I am excited to relocate them in the heart of the exclusive Southampton shopping district.”

Adds Ruby & Jenna owner Barbara Lubel, ”We pride ourselves on providing fashion to youth and youth-minded buyers that is trendsetting and fun. Jenna and I carefully seek out designers that don’t mass manufacture, which reinforces the unique quality of our brand.”

The approximately 1,500-square foot store in the Southampton shopping district is located between Main Street and Pond Lane. The lease term is five years. The landlord, Pan-Brothers Associates, was represented in-house by Steve Politis.
