A trio of fast-food restaurants will be bringing tacos, Asian-fusion food and chicken fingers to RXR Realty and Walton Street Capital237 Park Avenue between East 45th and East 46th Streets, Commercial Observer has learned.

The owner of taqueria Taco Dumbo and Asian-fusion eatery Omakasa has leased 2,407 square feet in the newly constructed glass box at 237 Park Avenue at Depew Place, for an outpost of each concept in a shared space, sources said.

And popular chicken fingers chain Sticky’s Finger Joint signed a 12-year deal for 1,571 square feet on the ground floor of the Lexington side of the property, which has an alternate address of 460 Lexington Avenue. The asking rent there was $250 a foot.

“We think this is a really exciting and important opportunity for Sticky’s expansion,” said SRS Real Estate Partners‘ Adam Langer who represented the tenant along with colleague Mark Tedeschi. “Being in such a dense office neighborhood and so close to Grand Central [Terminal] is going to introduce the brand to a whole new lunch crowd.”

The three eateries are expected to open in four to six months.

“The activation of Depew Place where Taco Dumbo and Omakasa will occupy the newly constructed glass-box restaurant will bring a renewed energy to what was formerly an underutilized area of the outdoor plaza area of the building,” said William Elder, the managing director of RXR’s New York City division. “Additionally Sticky’s Fingers’ located on Lexington will provide a new and exciting version of fast-casual dining to our tenants and the community in the area.”

Newmark (NMRK) Knight Frank‘s Jeffrey Roseman, Marc Frankel and Mark Utreras represented RXR in the deals. Roseman declined to comment, as did the spokeswoman for Taco Dumbo and Omakasa. No one from Sticky’s Finger Joint immediately responded to a request for comment.
