Good Time Golf, Pop-Up Bagels Also Coming to Somerville
Federal Realty announced today that World Market will open its second Massachusetts location this year at Assembly Row. The new 18,361 SF showroom will fill the final vacancy in Assembly Square Marketplace and sit adjacent to Ashley Furniture. Good Time Golf (4,804 SF), a new golf simulator and lounge, Pop-Up Bagels (1,395 SF), the second Boston location of one of the most popular bagel concepts in the region, and Verizon Wireless (2,003 SF) will also join the growing neighborhood in 2025.
World Market’s eclectic assortment of products aims to provide inspiration for home decorators, entertainers and gifters. The new store will offer unique artisan goods, indoor and outdoor furniture, lighting, home décor, international food items, and more.
Good Time Golf will bring a year-round golf experience to Assembly Row complete with a food & beverage component and advanced technology for realistic play catering to both avid golfers and newcomers alike. Pop-Up Bagels, a New York-based concept, has been generating buzz and lines for their always-fresh bagels and schmears. Verizon Wireless will be opening one of their “Next Gen” concepts, which are designed to be more human and community-focused, and are inspired by newsstands, coffee shops, and bookstores.
“With the addition of World Market, the Marketplace will deliver a truly comprehensive group of home décor and furnishing options alongside Ashley Furniture, Bob’s, T.J. Maxx & HomeGoods and Raymour & Flanigan,” said David Middleton, Vice President and General Manager of Assembly Row. “Good Time Golf and Pop-Up Bagels are both great additions that we hope will spark a lot of excitement amongst our residents, employees, visitors and neighbors.”
In addition to signing three new leases, long-time tenant River Bar recently closed and is in the process of refreshing the concept. Set to open this spring/summer, Cocolee, a Pan-Asian concept will feature Dim Sum, traditional noodle dishes, large format entrees and innovative cocktails.
Other recent openings at Assembly Row include Somerville favorite Posto, Learning Express Toys and Gifts, piercing studio Rowan, Burton Snowboards, and Cole Haan Outlet.
