Imagine stepping out of your office and into a vibrant marketplace. Cafés buzzing with people, boutiques showcasing local & international merchandise, beauty & health services, just a ride down the elevator. This isn’t a wish list item anymore; it’s a necessity for any commercial project to be sought after by tenants.
Retail in office buildings serves a dual purpose. It enhances the work-life balance for employees and increases foot traffic, benefiting the office tenants. A well-curated retail mix can transform office buildings into community hubs, fostering connections beyond the 9-to-5 grind.
Retail can breathe life into an otherwise regular workday, create a sense of place, and enhance the brand and reputation of the building and its tenants.
For developers, this means thinking beyond square footage to evaluate how retail and placemaking space can enrich lives.
