New retail tenants are opening at the revamped Huntington Shopping Center in Huntington Station. 

Clothes Horse just opened a 2,148-square-foot store at the retail complex at 350 Walt Whitman Road. The women’s clothing boutique has other locations in Merrick, Albertson and Brooklyn. It will be celebrating the opening of the new Huntington store through Sunday, June 23. 

Pacfe Nails & Spa will soon open a 3,681-square-foot location at Huntington Shopping Center. This will be the third Long Island location for the nail studio chain, following Hicksville and Centereach. 

Another new tenant is European Wax Center, which will open soon in a 1,268-square-foot space. 

As LIBN reported in January, Street to Table, a restaurant with a menu inspired by street food from around the world, will open a 2,679-square-foot eatery at Huntington Shopping Center this summer. This is the second Long Island location for Street to Table, which opened in Merrick in 2019. 

Häagen-Dazs will also be expanding its Long Island footprint with the opening of a 1,406-square-foot store at the Huntington Station center this summer. It will be the 11th Häagen-Dazs store on Long Island. 

The 21-acre Huntington Shopping Center is nearing the completion of a $75 million redevelopment and improvement project by its owner Federal Realty Investment Trust. 

“As our redevelopment of Huntington Shopping Center nears completion, we’re excited to add several local brands to our merchandizing mix,” Chris Fleming, vice president of Asset Management at Federal Realty, said in a company statement. “Alongside Whole Foods, The Container Store and REI, these small shops will help draw and maintain new and repeat customers for years to come.” 

Currently 94 percent leased, the 210,000-square-foot center has opened nine new tenants including The Container Store, REI, J.Crew Factory, Just Salad, Burger Village, Paris Baguette and others. The center’s new grocery anchor Whole Foods is expected to open this summer.
