Finally, a tenant for major corner space at 38 Sixth Avenue, at southeast corner of arena block: Heart of Chelsea Veterinary Hospital
Photos: Norman Oder Well after the corner retail space at 38 Sixth Avenue along Dean Street was vacated by construction crews working on nearby towers, that space has been leased to the Heart of Chelsea Veterinary Group, which currently has locations in Chelsea, the Lower East Side, Hell's Kitchen, and Park Slope. Signage went up in the past week week after workers were observed prepping the interior. A few years ago, the retail broker Ripco advertised 3,533 square feet for RETAIL/RESTAURANT (marketing brochure, bottom), omitting the L-shaped space at the corner. More recently, in the other marketing brochure (also below), it pitched 3,393 square feet for retail, restaurant, fitness, or medical use, as a discrete L-shape, but omitting a segment closest to the Barclays Center loading dock. The signage for Heart of Chelsea wraps all the way around the building, as shown at right, so it's not clear if they're leasing even more space, or if there's some internal space omit
