Luxury furniture retailer RH opening new Long Island store
The luxury home furnishings retailer formerly known as Restoration Hardware will open an off-price store in Commack this week.
The RH Outlet opening in part of a former Target space is one of two stores RH has planned for Long Island this year. The other is a full-price store, RH Gallery, slated for Manhasset.
The approximately 42,000-square-foot outlet at 4 Henry St. in the Commack South Shopping Center will open at 10 a.m. Thursday, said Peter Cosentino, a managing partner of the Cosentino Realty Group, the Islandia-based company that owns the shopping center.
“We’re very happy and excited to have … [RH] join our shopping center. We believe that it’s going to be a great contribution to the community,” he said Monday.
Headquartered in Corte Madera, California, RH declined to comment on its Long Island plans.
RH’s outlets “provide an efficient means to sell primarily returned merchandise and, to a lesser extent, discontinued and overstock merchandise outside of our core sales channels,” according to RH’s 2023 annual report.
The outlet in Commack is splitting Target’s former space with Floor & Decor. The Atlanta-based flooring chain opened a 95,000-square-foot warehouse store and design center in Commack in 2021.
The 143,000-square-foot Target, which opened in 2002, was one of six “underperforming” stores in five states that Minneapolis-based Target Corp. closed in 2019. (Target still operates a Commack store, 3.5 miles away, at 98 Veterans Memorial Hwy.)
As for RH’s other new location slated for Long Island, a 19,410-square-foot store would open in the high-end Americana Manhasset shopping center, according to plans submitted for approval in December to the Town of North Hempstead.
The Manhasset store would be at 2128 Northern Blvd., which was recently vacated by a Brooks Brothers men’s clothing store.
The Manhasset store plans were submitted to the Town of North Hempstead by Fifth Avenue of Long Island Realty, which owns Americana Manhasset and is an affiliate of Castagna Realty Co. Inc., which manages the property.
Castagna Realty did not immediately respond to a request for comment Monday.
The RH Gallery planned for Manhasset is one of seven full-price home furnishings stores that RH will open in North America in 2025, according to the retailer’s fiscal third-quarter earnings report released in December.
The retailer currently has two stores operating on Long Island — an outlet that opened at the Tanger Outlets Riverhead in 2008 and an RH Gallery that opened in East Hampton in 2011.
As of Nov. 2, the end of its fiscal third quarter, RH had 71 RH Galleries and 38 RH Outlets in the United States, Canada and Europe.
The company also operated RH Guesthouse, a luxury hotel that opened in 2022 in Manhattan, and 14 Waterworks Showrooms for bath and kitchen products.
