Migbt as well build a bigger lobby or sales/ leasing office- or a giant storage room for all the amazon packages the residents are getting. Retail for the most part is over. Bars, food,coffee,yoga, salons, or niche specialty stores can survive in Manhattan. Thats it.

At least they finally cleared away those construction barriers.<br /><br />The stores at Steiner East Village on 12th and Avenue A are still empty after a few years on the market. One listing dates back to 2014, before that building even went up. While University Place is a more upscale location than Avenue A, the rents must be much more upscale as well. Unless the Nutella Cafe suddenly requires a massive expansion, this will take quite awhile.Giovannihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11061991537085810824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-56296860021640770432019-08-08T11:58:17.748-04:002019-08-08T11:58:17.748-04:00@10:32am: Not sure whom you are addressing, but &q...@10:32am: Not sure whom you are addressing, but "people with money" are often fools and/or idiots - they buy tickets to the Fyre Festival, for instance.

Barneys is closing 7 stores nationwide and has entered chapter 11 so it's not just mom and pop stores being priced out and or killed by Amazon. <br />It will be interesting in the coming years to see what becomes of similar retail spaces as those building fight over the shrinking number of businesses which will be in a position to lease in these luxury building. noble neolanihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15721532867336440260noreply@blogger.com
