The 13,000-square-foot, three-level space will house a restaurant seating 160 people and feature an array of decoratives from palm trees to limestone floors.

“We want the customer to feel like this is an urban resort. We want this to feel like a little oasis. We want people to forget the hustle and bustle of Manhattan and come in here and chill out,” Rob Goldberg, senior vp of marketing for the Tommy Bahama Group, told WWD.
