25,000 SF Building is Now Fully Leased

YONKERS, NY (January 2026) Simone Development Companies has announced that Hudson View Piano Studio has signed a new lease for 1,013 square feet at 1034 North Broadway in North Yonkers, NY. The recently renovated 25,000 square-foot, two-story building is now fully leased.

Hudson View Piano Studio offers group and private piano lessons for kids that blend time-tested techniques with cutting-edge technology. The company’s unique approach creates a fun and engaging learning environment, inspiring a lifelong love of music while achieving lasting results.

“This space reflects how we think about music education,” said Kirk Habana, Founder and Director of Hudson View Piano Studio. “In a building designed for long-term, service-oriented businesses that support families over time, our studio fits naturally. We don’t offer piano as a short-term activity or seasonal enrichment. We teach it as a lifelong skill. Our program combines time-tested musical training with modern tools and technology that help students stay engaged and make real progress. Long after schedules change and activities fall away, students can still sit down at a piano and play with confidence. This new location allows us to serve families who are looking for depth, continuity, and meaningful growth – not just another activity, but an investment that lasts.”

“We are thrilled to welcome Hudson View Piano Studio to their new home at 1034 North Broadway,” said Joanna Simone, President of Leasing and Property Management Operations for Simone Development Companies. “Now fully leased, this property offers a healthy mix of healthcare and service-oriented retail to meet the needs of this dynamic community along the North Yonkers corridor.”

1034 North Broadway is a 25,000-square-foot, recently renovated multi-tenant medical and retail property that includes Northwell Health as well as Trust Specialty Pharmacy, the first pharmacy and drug compounding retail location in Yonkers. The property offers ample parking in a convenient and central location within close proximity to highways and public transportation. It’s also down the street from One Executive Boulevard, Simone Development’s newly renovated 133,768-square-foot, 4-story state-of-the-art medical building, as well as the Boyce Thompson Center, an 85,000-square-foot mixed-use center that includes physician’s offices of St. John’s Riverside Hospital, Westmed/Summit Health, ENT & Allergy Associates, Columbia Doctors and other medical practices along with retail shops and restaurants.

Simone Development was represented in the transaction by Jillian Reiner of RM Friedland alongside Simone’s in-house leasing and legal teams.
