PARAMUS, NJ. (2025) – The Goldstein Group, a leading provider of retail real estate services in New Jersey, announced it has placed Ethan Allen at Green Brook Commons, 1691 Route 22 Watchung, NJ according to Neil Goldstein, Principal of The Goldstein Group.

Goldstein and Mark Handwerker, Executive Vice President of The Goldstein Group represented the tenant. William Farkas and Mike Testa from Jeffrey Realty represented the landlord, Watchung Urban Edge LLC.

“Ethan Allen was looking to relocate its existing store and after a thorough analysis of the market, it was decided to find an alternative near the prior location”, noted Goldstein. “Additionally, the company decided to reduce its store size from a larger model to one of their new prototypes.”

Ethan Allen is an international interior design company, manufacturer and retailer in the home furnishings marketplace. Ethan Allen was founded in Vermont in 1932 by brothers-in-law Nat Ancell and Ted Baumritter as a houseware’s sales agency. In 1935 a purchase of a bankrupt sawmill in Vermont would start their manufacturing of home furnishings. They officially changed their company name to Ethan Allen in 1969 and began marketing directly to consumers rather than furniture retailers. Today they are a world leader in environmentally responsible manufacturing with over 170 locations with their headquarters in Danbury, Connecticut.
