Cloudbound, which said it is launching its first two corporate locations this fall, has signed a lease for 19,197 square feet of space at Simone Development Companies’ 80 Nardozzi Place property in New Rochelle. Cloudbound, which provides indoor playspace for children up to six years of age, also plans to open in Washington, D.C.
Cloudbound is a creation of Sky Zone, which is based in Provo, Utah, and owns, operates and franchises more than 265 entertainment centers in the U.S. It was founded in 2004 as Sky Zone Trampoline Park and boasts of having 800,000 members using its attractions.
“Today’s parents are seeking developmentally rich experiences for their young kids, but often feel overwhelmed and underserved,” according to Caitlin Shufelt, vice president of Cloudbound. “Cloudbound parks will answer the call – offering play spaces that support child development while giving parents a chance to bond, connect, and find community.”
Cloudbound describes its playspaces as reimagining early childhood play with enriching experiences and “blending the wonder of a children’s museum with the energy of a playground.”
Cloudbound creates what it calls an imaginative setting above the clouds that includes such features as soft spinning gyroscopic chairs and castles in the sky. Its facilities will offer a café, private nursing rooms, family restrooms, stroller parking, and a quiet room for overstimulated toddlers.
“We’re thrilled to join the vibrant New Rochelle community, where so many families are putting down roots,” Shufelt said. “With nearly a third of households raising children, it’s clear there’s a growing need for spaces that support both kids and their caregivers. Cloudbound was designed to fill that gap – not just as a place to play, but as a hub for connection, development, and everyday support. We’re proud to bring our expert-backed environment to Westchester and look forward to becoming part of the fabric of family life here.”
Simone Development said that Cloudbound was represented in the lease transaction by Alex Hedaya and Andrew Connolly of Newmark. Simone Development was represented by Karnit Mosberg of Royal Properties alongside Simone’s in-house leasing and legal teams.
Cloudbound joins PXG Westchester and My Salon Suite at 80–110 Nardozzi Place as well as LA Fitness and Dello Russo Laser Vision at Simone Development’s adjacent 70 Nardozzi Place.
Simone Development Companies has its headquarters at the Hutchinson Metro Center. It has a real estate portfolio totaling more than seven million square feet in Westchester, Orange and Fairfield Counties as well the Bronx, Manhattan, Queens, Long Island, and New Jersey.
