The eatery, which will also function as an event venue, has signed a 15-year lease for 5,000 square feet on the ground floor of the landmarked building at 233 Broadway, according to Cammeby’s International, which owns the commercial portion of the property along with Witkoff Group.

The restaurant’s new space at the 60-story Tribeca building between Barclay Street and Park Place will replace cocktail bar Wooly Public and is set to undergo a “complete transformation,” Cammeby’s said.

“Announcing Goody’s is a significant part of our bigger picture goal toward reshaping and reimagining this historic building,” Avi Schron, principal at Cammeby’s, said in a statement.
“The uniqueness of Goody’s and the exceptional ground-floor space in which it will operate is the perfect fit for the building’s next chapter.”

The exact asking rent was unclear, but the average asking rent for the Woolworth’s ground floor retail space is $175 per square foot, according to Cammeby’s website.

The Lawrence Group’s David Ofman and Brian Siegel brokered the deal for the landlords, while there was no broker for the tenant.

Ofman and Siegel did not immediately respond to requests for comment. The Tribeca Citizen first reported the news.

In addition to serving breakfast, lunch, dinner and cocktails, Goody’s will serve as a “multi functional venue” for private events such as “high-profile” art and fashion shows, Cammeby’s said. Goody’s will have several partners to host such events, including architect Ron Castellano and curator Social Services’ Travs Bass.
