What 2nd Ave Lighting does

2nd Ave Lighting is a privately held American manufacturer of custom decorative lighting, founded in 1979 and headquartered in Yorkville, New York. The company operates a 180,000 sq ft manufacturing facility in which nearly every production process — metalwork, finishing, assembly, and specialty stone fabrication (including Natural Calcite diffusers) — is performed in-house by skilled artisans. Its product portfolio spans chandeliers, pendants, wall sconces, flush and semi-flush mounts, portable lamps, fireplace screens, and bespoke custom projects, with integrated LED lamping and 'Smart Suite' control systems offered across the catalog.

The company sells primarily direct-to-consumer through its e-commerce site (2ndave.com) and serves enterprise clients in the hospitality and commercial segments through a dedicated Custom Projects service and a Trade Pro referral program targeting interior designers, architects, and lighting specifiers. Pricing is unit-based and quote-driven, with catalog chandeliers ranging from approximately $8,000 to $75,000 and custom projects priced to specification. Documented enterprise customers include William Vale Hotel, Stone Brewery, Hilton Garden, Park Ave Offices, and several Upstate NY hospitality properties. The firm has no disclosed external funding, no parent company or subsidiaries, and maintains a related-entity relationship with sister brand Meyda.
