Duane Reade to open remodeled location at Rockrose’s 200 Water Street

Duane Reade, the New York City drug store mainstay that’s been updating its image over the past year, has announced that a new 8,500-square-foot location at 200 Water Street will be the first store to feature its new, remodeled interior. The drug store reportedly chose the location in part because of the influx of renters in the region, as 15 new residential buildings have cropped up in the Financial District in the last four years, according to Patricia Dunphy, senior vice president of Rockrose Development, which owns the 200 Water Street building. Duane Reade plans to re-brand 100 of its 253 locations in the city this year, adding better-lit, wider aisles and new interior fixtures.
