JEY Hospitality | Fort Lauderdale’s MASS District, Flagler Village
JEY Hospitality signed a lease for an entertainment/dining venue in Fort Lauderdale’s Music & Arts South of Sunrise (MASS) District within Flagler Village, according to broker Jaime Sturgis.
JEY secured a 10-year lease for the roughly 3,200-square-foot building at 810 Northeast Fourth Avenue. Sturgis, CEO of Native Realty, represented the building’s owner, RWL 4 Inc. The building sits on a 9,750-square-foot lot that includes a large courtyard JEY will use, Sturgis said.

JEY will pay 33 percent of rent in the first year, 66 percent in the second year and full rent by the third year. Sturgis said he received three full-price offers for the space.
The building was previously occupied by Jump The Shark, a bar. Sturgis expects the new concept to open within six to nine months.
