Consolo & Aquino Arrange New & Expanded Bond No. 9 Showroom

Bonding on Bond:
Prestigious Parfumier Expands Showroom and Corporate Event Space
On Same Cobblestone Street as Eponymous Flagship at Number 9
 
Consolo & Aquino Expand Bond No. 9's Corporate Presence on Historic
Nolita Block in Landmark Loft Building at 42 Bond Street
 

 Downtown leasing and sales specialists Faith Hope Consolo, Chairman, andJoseph Aquino, Executive Vice of Prudential Douglas Elliman's Retail Group have orchestrated a soaring 5,700-square-foot showroom and corporate events space for Bond No. 9 at 42 Bond Street, between the Bowery and Lafayette Street, just blocks from its flagship store at number 9 Bond Street. Having previously arranged multiple store locations for the international fragrance company, they have now placed its  new headquarters in a quintessential, circa 1900 Nolita loft building. Fellow tenants include a hip model and several advertising agencies. Situated next door to Ian Shrager'süber posh condominium 40 Bond Street and surrounded by such trendsetting retail as John Varvatos and DQM, Bond No. 9, which names its fragrances after New York City streets and neighborhoods, is in the center of urbane style and downtown glamour.
 
     "Over the years, we have focused only on the most strategic locations for Bond No. 9 stores," said Ms. Consolo. "Now that this unique collection is so completely ensconced in the fragrance lexicon of the city, we felt it was equally important to have the new showroom and corporate space on its namesake street, and on a block that is filled with old world-charm and modern cachet."
 
     Added Mr. Aquino, "We're a virtual one-stop shop that has gone full circle with the brand, which we originally placed on Bond Street where it got its name, followed by two important Madison Avenue locations, then back downtown to Bleecker Street and, most recently to Manhattan's Meatpacking District and the American Hotel in Sag Harbor. Helping clients grow is exactly what we strive for."
 
     Ms. Consolo and Mr. Aquino represented the tenant as its exclusive agents.
