Residential Market Analysis Across the Urban-to-Rural Transect

AN UPDATE OF THE MARKET POSITION ANALYSIS The Bridge Street District City of Dublin, Franklin County, Ohio

April, 2019

INTRODUCTION

The purpose of this study is to update the market potential and optimum market position for newly- introduced rental and for-sale housing units that could be developed within the Bridge Street District in the City of Dublin, Ohio. The original study was published in August, 2009.

The optimum market position for new housing units in the Bridge Street District has been derived from: the housing preferences, financial capacities, and lifestyle characteristics of the target households; the District’s location, visibility and physical attributes; the rental and for-sale housing market context in the Dublin market area; and Zimmerman/Volk Associates’ extensive experience with urban development and redevelopment. For the purposes of this update, the Bridge Street District encompasses the area extending to Interstate 270 in the north and west, Sawmill Road to the east, and to just below Metro Center in the south, including historic Downtown Dublin.

The extent and characteristics of the potential market for new housing units that could be developed within the District, then, were identified using Zimmerman/Volk Associates’ proprietary target market methodology. This methodology was developed in response to the challenges that are inherent in the application of conventional supply/demand analysis to urban development and redevelopment. Supply/demand analysis ignores the potential impact of newly-introduced housing supply on settlement patterns, which can be substantial when housing choices in the market are increased with new housing types that match the housing preferences and economic capabilities of the draw area households.

In contrast to conventional supply/demand analysis, which is typically limited by supply-side dynamics and baseline demographic projections, target market analysis determines the depth and breadth of the potential market derived from the housing preferences and socio-economic characteristics of households in the defined draw areas. Because it considers not only basic demographic characteristics, such as income qualification and age, but also less frequently analyzed attributes such as lifestage, mobility rates, lifestyle patterns and household compatibility issues, the target market methodology is particularly effective in defining a realistic housing potential for urban development and redevelopment where often no directly-comparable properties exist.

Based on the target market methodology, then, this update re-examined the following: • Where the potential renters and buyers of new dwelling units that could be developed within the Bridge Street District currently live (the draw areas); • How many households have the potential to move to the District each year (depth and breadth of the market); • What their housing preferences are in aggregate (rental or ownership, multi-family or single-family); • Who are they and what they are like (the target markets); • What are their current housing alternatives (the Dublin area market context); • What are the rents and prices of new units that could be developed within the District that correspond to target household financial capabilities (optimum market position); and • How quickly they will rent or purchase the new units (absorption forecasts).

The target market methodology is described in detail in the METHODOLOGY document, provided separately.

CITY-WIDE AVERAGE ANNUAL MARKET POTENTIAL

An update of migration, mobility and geo-demographic characteristics of households currently living within defined draw areas is integral to the determination of the depth and breadth of the potential market for new housing units within the City of Dublin and the Bridge Street District.

An understanding of these mobility trends, as well as the socio-economic and lifestyle characteristics of households currently living within defined draw areas, is the first step in the update. The draw areas are derived primarily through household migration analysis (using the latest taxpayer data provided by the Internal Revenue Service). To refine the draw area for the city, the IRS migration data have been supplemented by population migration and mobility data for the City of Dublin from the five-year estimates of the 2012-2016 American Community Survey.

The most recent Franklin County migration and mobility data—from taxpayer records compiled by the Internal Revenue Service from 2011 through 2015—and the American Community Survey estimates for the City of Dublin shows that the draw areas for new and existing housing units in the City and in the District include the following: • The primary draw area, covering households who live within the Dublin city limits. • The county draw area, covering households with the potential to move to the City of Dublin from the balance of Franklin County. • The regional draw area, covering households with the potential to move to the City of Dublin from Delaware, Fairfield, and Licking Counties. • The national draw area, covering households with the potential to move to the City of Dublin from all other U.S. cities and counties, particularly Midwestern U.S. counties.

As derived from the migration, mobility and target market update, the draw area distribution of market potential (those households with the potential to move within or to the City of Dublin each year over the next five years) is shown on the table following this page:

As updated by the target market methodology, which accounts for household mobility within the City of Dublin, as well as migration and mobility patterns for households currently living in all other cities and counties, an annual average of 4,360 households represent the potential market for new

and existing housing units within the City each year over the next five years. (NOTE: This is a significant decrease from 2009, due in part to Dublin’s increased income and value appreciation relative to its surroundings—making housing less attainable for potential households—and in part due to continuously decreasing American mobility since the Great Recession).)

AVERAGE ANNUAL MARKET POTENTIAL FOR THE BRIDGE STREET DISTRICT

The target market methodology identifies those households that prefer living in downtowns and walkable urban neighborhoods. After eliminating those segments of the potential city-wide market that have preferences for new or existing housing in more suburban or rural areas, the distribution of draw area market potential for new and existing housing units in the Bridge Street District is summarized on the following table:

Average Annual Market Potential by Draw Area THE BRIDGE STREET DISTRICT City of Dublin, Franklin County, Ohio City of Dublin (Primary Draw Area): 32.5% Balance of Franklin County (Local Draw Area): 30.2% Delaware, Fairfield, and Licking Counties (Regional Draw Area): 10.7% Balance of US (National Draw Area): 26.6% Total: 100.0%

SOURCE: Zimmerman/Volk Associates, Inc., 2019.

Based on the updated target market analysis, then, an annual average of 1,945 younger singles and couples, empty nesters and retirees, and compact families, with incomes over $40,000 per year, represent the annual potential market for new and existing housing units of every kind within the District each year over the next five years (see Table 1 following the text).

The tenure (rental or ownership) preferences of these 1,945 draw area households indicate that approximately 54.1 percent of these households (or 1,052 households) comprise the annual potential market for new and existing rental units and the remaining 45.9 percent (893 households) comprise the market for new and existing for-sale (ownership) housing units.

TARGET MARKET ANALYSIS

Even a decade later, the aftermath of the housing crash has wrought significant changes in market preferences from single-use subdivisions to mixed-use, walkable neighborhoods, particularly downtowns and in-town neighborhoods. The preference for urban living evidenced by both younger and older one- and two-person households continues to be a primary force in urban redevelopment across the country,

These changes have been driven by the convergence of the preferences of the two largest generations in the history of America: the Baby Boomers (currently estimated at 74 million), older singles and couples born between 1946 and 1964, and the estimated 88 million Millennials, younger singles and couples who were born from 1977 to 1996 and, in 2010, surpassed the Boomers in population.

In addition to their shared preference for urban living, the Boomers and Millennials are changing housing markets in multiple ways. In contrast to the traditional family (married couples with children) that comprised the typical post-war American household, Boomers and Millennials are households of predominantly singles and couples. As a result, the 21st century home-buying market now contains more than 63 percent one- and two-person households, and the 37 percent of homebuyers that could be categorized as family households are equally likely to be non-traditional as traditional families.

As determined by the target market analysis, and reflecting national trends, the annual potential market—represented by lifestage—for new rental and ownership housing units in the District has been updated as shown on the table following this page (see also Table 2 following the text):

Younger singles and couples represent 58 percent of the market for new dwelling units in the District. The younger market includes a variety of white-collar professionals, young entrepreneurs, artists, and knowledge workers—New Power Couples, New Bohemians, Cosmopolitan Elite, The VIPs, Fast-Track Professionals—as well as office employees, recent graduates just starting their first jobs, and retail workers—Suburban Achievers, Suburban Strivers, Small-City Singles, and Twentysomethings. These younger singles and couples prefer to live in downtowns and urban neighborhoods for their diversity, and for the availability of employment, entertainment, and cultural opportunities within walking distance of their residences. Among the other principal factors in the largest share of the market held by younger singles and couples are: • Their higher mobility rates—young people tend to move much more frequently than older people; • Their strong preference for rental apartments, in part because they have not saved sufficient funds for a down payment and in part because the collapse of the housing market during the Great Recession has made many of them skeptical about the value of owning versus renting; and • The continued reduced mobility of empty nesters and retirees.

Just under 37 percent of the younger singles and couples that represent the market for new housing units in the District would be moving from elsewhere in the city; 35 percent would be moving from the balance of Franklin County; 7.5 percent from the region; and approximately 20.8 percent would be moving from elsewhere in the United States.

ZIMMERMAN/VOLK ASSOCIATES, INC. UPDATE OF THE MARKET POSITION ANALYSIS Page 9 The Bridge Street District City of Dublin, Franklin County, Ohio April, 2019

At 24 percent of the annual potential market for new housing units in the Bridge Street District, older households (empty nesters and retirees) represent the second largest share of the market. Most of these households have adult children who no longer live in the family home; many are enthusiastic participants in community life and are still actively involved in well-paying careers in the banking, legal and medical professions. These target groups range from the wealthiest households— the One Percenters, Old Money, the Social Register, and Small-Town Patriarchs, to the well-to-do Urban Establishment, Affluent Empty Nesters, Multi-Ethnic Empty Nesters, Cosmopolitan Couples, Pillars of the Community, and New Empty Nesters, to the financially-comfortable Suburban Establishment, Second-City Establishment, Mainstream Empty Nesters, Middle-American Retirees, Blue- Collar Retirees, and Middle-Class Move-Downs.

Over 41 percent of the empty nesters and retirees would be moving from elsewhere within the City of Dublin; 21 percent would be moving from the balance of Franklin County; just 8.4 percent currently live in one of the counties in the regional draw area; and the remaining 29.5 percent would be moving from elsewhere in the U.S.

Family-oriented households represent 18 percent of the market for new dwelling units in the District. Households with children are now increasingly diverse and in many urban areas are largely non-traditional families. Heads of these households have banking careers and upper-middle management jobs, or are professionals in the medical and legal sectors. These households range from the wealthiest Corporate Establishment, Nouveau Money, and e-Type Families, to the well-to-do Button-Down Families, Transferees, Fiber-Optic Families, Late-Nest Suburbanites, and also include the upper middle-income Multi-Cultural Families, Multi-Ethnic Families, and Uptown Families.

More than 38 percent of the family households are already living in the City of Dublin, 29.4 percent live in the balance of Franklin County; just 7.4 percent in the regional draw area, and the remaining 25 percent would be moving from elsewhere in the U.S.

THE CURRENT CONTEXT

Summary supply-side information for the Dublin market area (covering multi-family rental properties, for-sale condominium and townhouse listings, and for-sale single-family detached houses) is provided in tabular form following the text: Table 3, Summary of Selected Rental Properties Built After 2000, Table 4, Summary of Selected For-Sale Multi-Family and Single-Family Attached Listings, and Table 5, Summary of Newly-Constructed For-Sale Single-Family Detached Houses.

Walk Score, a number between 0 and 100 denoting the walkability of a specific address or neighborhood, has grown in importance as a value criterion. Walk Scores above 90 indicate a “Walker’s Paradise,” where daily errands do not require a car. Walk Scores between 70 and 90 are considered to be very walkable, where most errands can be accomplished on foot, and Walk Scores between 50 and 69 are regarded as somewhat walkable, where some errands can be accomplished on foot. Walk Scores below 50 indicate that most or almost all errands require an automobile.

All of the Dublin area properties have Walk scores below 70. The two new rental properties in the District have Walk Scores of 58 (Bridge Park) and 30 (Tuller Flats); the new Bridge Park Townhomes have a Walk Score of 42, and Bridge Park West, the new condominiums built on the West Bank of the Scioto River, has a Walk Score of 58. These Walk Scores are evidence that the District will require significant additional mixed-use development to achieve all of the attributes and positive impact of a vibrant, walkable neighborhood

OPTIMUM MARKET POSITION: THE BRIDGE STREET DISTRICT

As noted above under AVERAGE ANNUAL MARKET POTENTIAL FOR THE BRIDGE STREET DISTRICT, the market- rate price points for new rental and ownership housing units that could be developed within the District are derived from the income and financial capabilities of those 1,945 targeted draw area households with annual incomes above $40,000.

—Multi-Family For-Rent Distribution by Rent Range—

An annual average of 1,052 households with incomes above $40,000 per year represent the target markets for newly-constructed rental housing units within the Bridge Street District (as shown on Table 6 following the text). Supportable rent ranges have been established at 25 to 30 percent of the monthly gross incomes of each of the 1,052 households, yielding the distribution shown on the following table: New Multi-Family For-Rent Distribution by Rent Range Households With Annual Incomes Above $40,000 THE BRIDGE STREET DISTRICT City of Dublin, Franklin County, Ohio

• Younger singles and couples comprise almost two-thirds of the market for new for-sale multi-family units (condominiums) within the Bridge Street District. Slightly over one percent of the younger singles and couples, New Power Couples, have the income and assets to purchase new condominiums with base prices over $350,000. Just under two-thirds would be in the market for new units priced between $250,000 and $350,000 (New Bohemians, Cosmopolitan Elite, The VIPs, and Fast-Track Professionals). Just under a third of this market segment (Suburban Achievers, Suburban Strivers, Small-City Singles, Twentysomethings, and Second-City Strivers) can only afford new condominiums with base prices between $150,000 and $250,000. • Empty nesters and retirees represent 22.2 percent of the market for new condominiums within the District.

—OPTIMUM MARKET POSITION: THE BRIDGE STREET DISTRICT—

As detailed in the preceding section, an annual average of 1,945 potential renters with incomes of $40,000 or more per year comprise the annual potential market for new rental and ownership housing units in the Bridge Street District over the next five years. The optimum market position for new housing in the District has therefore been developed based on a variety of factors, including but not limited to: • The tenure and housing preferences, financial capabilities, and lifestages of the target households; • The physical and locational characteristics of the District; and • Current market area residential market dynamics.

It will be critical to expand the mixed-use development of the Bridge Street District in order to capture the full potential market. The target households have very strong preferences for walkable neighborhoods with a variety of attractive destinations. While the Bridge Street District has made significant advances toward achieving walkability and diversity of uses, the District is still short of the optimal urban condition to yield the highest values. Walk Scores registered by the residential properties already developed in the District remain below the levels where walkability has a significant impact on housing values. There is more than a sufficient market to continue residential development in the District to build toward its greatest potential. The increased number of residents living in additional housing units will make the District even more attractive to retailers and office users.

ZIMMERMAN/VOLK ASSOCIATES, INC. UPDATE OF THE MARKET POSITION ANALYSIS Page 21 The Bridge Street District City of Dublin, Franklin County, Ohio April, 2019

Based on these factors and objectives, then, the optimum market position for new rental and for-sale housing within the Bridge Street District is summarized on the following table (see also Table 10 following the text for greater detail):

—MARKET CAPTURE—

Based on 30 years’ experience employing the target market methodology in urban locations at every scale in 47 states, and given current economic conditions, Zimmerman/Volk Associates has determined that a capture of between 25 to 35 percent of the annual potential market for new rental units, and depending on housing types, from five to 25 percent of the annual potential market for new for-sale units could be achievable in the Bridge Street District.

Annual average absorption over the next five years within the District is forecast as shown on the table on the following page (see again Table 10 for greater detail):

ZIMMERMAN/VOLK ASSOCIATES, INC. UPDATE OF THE MARKET POSITION ANALYSIS Page 23 The Bridge Street District City of Dublin, Franklin County, Ohio April, 2019

Annual Forecast Absorption Households With Annual Incomes Above $40,000 THE BRIDGE STREET DISTRICT City of Dublin, Franklin County, Ohio

NUMBER OF ANNUAL CAPTURE HOUSING TYPE HOUSEHOLDS UNITS ABSORBED RATES Multi-family for-rent: Lofts 450 135 - 158 30 – 35% Multi-family for-rent: Apartments 602 151 - 181 25 – 30% Multi-family for-sale: Condominiums 135 27 - 34 20 – 25% Single-family attached for-sale: Townhouses 253 25 - 30 10 – 12% Single-family detached for-sale: Houses 505 25 - 35 5 – 7%

Total 1,945 363 - 438 units

SOURCE: Zimmerman/Volk Associates, Inc., 2019.

Based on these capture rates, the Bridge Street District should be able to absorb between 363 and 438 new rental and for-sale housing units per year each year over the next five years.

New housing units, configured according to target market preferences, can not only attract new households to the District and to the city, but can also provide appropriate alternatives to households that, due to a change in household composition or economic status, might otherwise have moved out of the city. Additional housing units will also support the social and economic sustainability of the Bridge Street District.

The capture rates of the annual potential market used here fall within the target market methodology’s parameters of feasibility.

NOTE: The target market capture rates of the potential purchaser or renter pool are a unique and highly-refined measure of feasibility. Target market capture rates are not equivalent to—and should not be confused with—penetration rates or traffic conversion rates.

The target market capture rate is derived by dividing the annual forecast absorption—in aggregate and by housing type—by the number of households that have the potential to purchase or rent new housing within a specified area in a given year.

ZIMMERMAN/VOLK ASSOCIATES, INC. UPDATE OF THE MARKET POSITION ANALYSIS Page 24 The Bridge Street District City of Dublin, Franklin County, Ohio April, 2019

The penetration rate is derived by dividing the total number of dwelling units planned for a property by the total number of draw area households, sometimes qualified by income.

The traffic conversion rate is derived by dividing the total number of buyers or renters by the total number of prospects that have visited a site.

Because the prospective market for a property or study area is more precisely defined using the residential target market methodology, a substantially smaller number of households are qualified; as a result, target market capture rates are higher than the more grossly-derived penetration rates. The resulting higher capture rates remain within the range of feasibility.

ZIMMERMAN/VOLK ASSOCIATES, INC. UPDATE OF THE MARKET POSITION ANALYSIS Page 25 The Bridge Street District City of Dublin, Franklin County, Ohio April, 2019

—BUILDING AMENITIES—

New buildings in the Bridge Street District should include 21st century urban amenities, with a technology focus, including an emphasis on “the internet of things” enabling remote access to HVAC, appliances, lighting and security. Particularly important would be features designed to help residents control energy usage and utility costs, such as: — Internet-enabled thermostat; — Energy-Star HVAC and appliances; — Internet-enabled lighting and outlets; — USB charging outlets in the kitchen and master bedroom; and — Built-in LED lighting.

To meet the expectations of potential residents, all units should be wired for high-speed internet as well as cable television. Wi-Fi should be available in all common areas and ideally building-wide.

Amenities in larger buildings could include a small fitness center with treadmills, bikes, Stairmasters, and free weights; a small business center; outdoor and indoor community gathering spaces, e.g.— Wi-Fi café, bar and kitchen. The kitchen could be designed as a demonstration chef’s kitchen with adjoining dining area that could be leased for dinner parties, or used by local chefs. Outdoor spaces should include a fire pit or other focal gathering points.

Other amenities that are not very expensive to provide but are highly attractive to the target markets include individual storage units, secure bicycle storage with bicycle repair and maintenance room, or “velo room,” including a repair stand, standard bike tools and air pumps, and recycling bins in the mail room. Because dogs have now become the equivalent of urban children, a dog washing station should also be provided.

BUILDING AND UNIT TYPES

Building and unit types most appropriate for the Bridge Street District include:

—MULTI-FAMILY BUILDINGS—

• Courtyard Apartment Building: In new construction, an urban-scale, pedestrian-oriented equivalent to conventional garden apartments. An urban courtyard building is typically four or more stories, often combined with non-residential uses on the ground floor, or with a ground floor configured for later conversion from residential to retail use. The building should be built to the sidewalk edge and when the ground-floor serves a permanent residential use it should be elevated significantly above grade to provide privacy and a sense of security. Parking is either below grade, at grade behind or in a parking courtyard, or in an integral structure.

• Liner Building: An apartment building with apartments and/or lofts lining two to four sides of a multi-story parking structure. Units are typically served from a single-loaded corridor that often includes access to parking. Ground floors typically include a traditional apartment lobby and can also include retail or office uses.

• Loft Apartment Building: Either adaptive re-use of older warehouse or manufacturing buildings or a new-construction building type inspired by those buildings. The new- construction version is usually elevator-served with double-loaded corridors.

• Mixed-Use Building: A pedestrian-oriented building, either attached or free-standing, with apartments and/or offices over flexible ground floor uses that can range from retail to office to residential.

• Podium Building: A small-scale apartment building construction type with two or more stories of stick-frame residential units (lofts or apartments) built over a single level of above- grade structured parking, usually constructed with reinforced concrete. With a well- conceived street pattern, a podium building can include ground-level non-residential uses lining one or more sides of the parking deck.

ZIMMERMAN/VOLK ASSOCIATES, INC. UPDATE OF THE MARKET POSITION ANALYSIS Page 27 The Bridge Street District City of Dublin, Franklin County, Ohio April, 2019

—MULTI-FAMILY UNIT TYPES—

• Apartments: More conventionally-finished single-level units, typically with completely- partitioned rooms. Trim, interior doors, kitchens and baths are often fitted out with higher- end finishes and fixtures than in lofts.

• Lofts: Unit interiors typically have high ceilings, are fully finished and partitioned into individual rooms. Units may also contain architectural elements reminiscent of hard lofts, such as exposed ceiling beams and ductwork, concrete floors and industrial finishes, particularly if the building is an adaptive re-use of an existing industrial structure.

• Mezzanine Loft: Lofts with an additional half level, the mezzanine, that typically occur only on the lowest or uppermost full floor of a multi-family building. The main double-height space—with at least 16-foot ceilings—should have large, two-story windows. The kitchen and often a half bath are on the main level, at least one full bath is located on the mezzanine.

• Microlofts: A unit on a single level in a multi-family building, with special design constraints due to their size. Because volume space will add to their livability, ceilings should be at least nine feet high and windows should be no smaller than six feet high. Microlofts typically include a full-height refrigerator and standard 30-inch kitchen sink, cooktop, and microwave range hood, but not an oven. Built-in furniture, including a pull-down bed option, as well as built-in storage also improves the livability of microlofts.

Several cities across the country are changing minimum unit size requirements as part of a strategy to attract young knowledge workers with contemporary yet affordable units. Millennial knowledge workers have responded positively to efficiency units as small as 220 square feet, often leasing out new micro loft projects within a matter of days.

ZIMMERMAN/VOLK ASSOCIATES, INC. UPDATE OF THE MARKET POSITION ANALYSIS Page 28 The Bridge Street District City of Dublin, Franklin County, Ohio April, 2019

—SINGLE-FAMILY ATTACHED UNIT TYPE—

• Townhouses: Similar in form to a conventional suburban townhouse except that the garage—either attached or detached—is located to the rear of the unit and accessed from an alley or auto court. Unlike conventional townhouses, urban rowhouses/townhouses conform to the pattern of streets, typically with shallow front-yard setbacks. To provide privacy and a sense of security, the first floor should be elevated significantly above the sidewalk.

—SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED UNIT TYPE—

• Houses: A one-and-a-half- or two-story single-family detached house sited relatively close to the street. Parking can be in attached or detached garages or open, and located at the rear of the lot well back from the front façade. Parking must be accessed from a rear lane, alley or auto court on lots narrower than 50 feet. o

ASSUMPTIONS AND LIMITATIONS—

Every effort has been made to insure the accuracy of the data contained within this analysis. Demographic and economic estimates and projections have been obtained from government agencies at the national, state, and county levels. Market information has been obtained from sources presumed to be reliable, including developers, owners, and/or sales agents. However, this information cannot be warranted by Zimmerman/Volk Associates, Inc. While the proprietary residential target market methodology™ employed in this analysis allows for a margin of error in base data, it is assumed that the market data and government estimates and projections are substantially accurate.

Absorption scenarios are based upon the assumption that a normal economic environment will prevail in a relatively steady state during development of the subject property. Absorption paces are likely to be slower during recessionary periods and faster during periods of recovery and high growth. Absorption scenarios are also predicated on the assumption that the product recommendations will be implemented generally as outlined in this report and that the developer will apply high-caliber design, construction, marketing, and management techniques to the development of the property.

Recommendations are subject to compliance with all applicable regulations. Relevant accounting, tax, and legal matters should be substantiated by appropriate counsel.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY M A R K E T P O S I T I O N A N A L Y S I S The Bridge Street/OH 161/US 33 Corridor City of Dublin, Franklin County, Ohio August, 2009

The residential market study identified a strong potential market for new rental and for-sale apartments, and for-sale townhouses and urban detached houses along the Bridge Street/OH 161/US 33 Corridor. The target markets included a mix of younger singles and childless couples—including white-collar professionals, young entrepreneurs, artists, and “knowledge workers” as well as office workers, undergraduates and graduate students, and other higher- education affiliates; empty nesters, with college-aged or adult children, and retirees, with incomes from pensions, savings and investments; and a small number of families.

From the market perspective, the assets of the Study Area that would make it an attractive place to live include: • Walking distance to historic Downtown Dublin. • Walking distance to several major employers in the city. • Exceptional visibility from Interstate 270. • Approximately a half hour drive to Ohio State University in Columbus. • A short drive to a wide variety of retailers, including the Mall at Turtle Crossing south of the city.

From a market perspective, the most significant challenges associated with the Study Area are: • The indirect access to/from I-270. • The nearly complete lack of transit connecting the Study Area with any other location in Dublin, Columbus, or elsewhere in Franklin County.

Based on target market housing preferences and financial capacities, the initial rents and prices, in 2009 dollars, for up to 1,500 housing units that could be developed along the Corridor are shown on the following page:

UNIT MARKET-ENTRY UNIT RENT/PRICE NUMBER TYPE BASE RENTS/PRICES SIZES PER SQ . FT. MULTI-FAMILY FOR-RENT—53.8% 807 Lofts/Apts. $675 to 550 to $1.17 to $1,950 per month 1,600 sf $1.25 MULTI-FAMILY FOR-SALE—28.3% 425 Lofts/Apts. $125,000 to 700 to $177 to $345,000 1,750 sf $197 SINGLE-FAMILY ATTACHED FOR-SALE—11.7% 175 Rowhouses/Live-Work $190,000 to 1,050 to $171 to $325,000 1,900 sf $181 SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED FOR-SALE—6.2% 93 Urban Houses $235,000 to 1,350 to $171 to $375,000 2,200 sf $181 1,500 dwelling units

Base rents/prices apply to first-floor units in year 2009 dollars. The rents/prices do not include view or floor premiums, and the prices do not include buyer options and upgrades, which can be significant, ranging from five percent or more above the base prices. The weighted averages for each of the four housing types would then be as follows: WEIGHTED AVERAGE HOUSING WEIGHTED AVERAGE WEIGHTED AVERAGE BASE RENT/PRICE TYPE BASE RENT/PRICE UNIT SIZE PER SQ . FT. Loft/Apartment Rentals $1,185 per month 983 $1.21 Loft/Apartment Condos $218,250 1,198 $182 Rowhouses/Live-Work $264,750 1,535 $172 Urban Houses $300,000 1,753 $171

After more than 20 years’ experience in numerous cities across the country, and in the context of the target market methodology, Zimmerman/Volk Associates has determined that those households that can afford, and would prefer new construction, rather than existing or renovated units, represent approximately five to 15 percent of the potential market, given the production of appropriately-positioned new housing. (Until the collapse of the housing market in the fall of 2008, newly-constructed dwelling units represented 15 percent of all units sold in the nation.) Over the near term, absorption rates are likely to be lower than the annual number of units forecast due to the uncertain timing of a mortgage and housing market recovery.

Assuming a capture rate of 10 percent, absorption of 1,500 new dwelling units within the Study Area would likely be achieved within approximately seven years, depending on phasing, construction and site constraints, and predicated on no worsening of the national, regional and local economies. o

August, 2009

INTRODUCTION

This study identifies the optimum market position for new market-rate high-density dwelling units that could be constructed within various locations along the Bridge Street/OH 161/US 33 Corridor (the Study Area), located in the City of Dublin, Franklin County, Ohio. In general, the Study Area extends from Sawmill Road, which forms the border with Columbus in the east, to Interstate 270 in the west, and from I-270 in the north to just below Metro Center in the south. The primary focus of the study, however, is the area surrounding historic Downtown Dublin, located south of I-270 and north of Bridge Street/OH 262/US 33.

The depth and breadth of the potential market have been determined using Zimmerman/Volk Associates’ proprietary target market methodology. In contrast to conventional supply/demand analysis—which is based on supply-side dynamics and baseline demographic projections—target market analysis establishes the optimum market position derived from the housing preferences and socio-economic characteristics of households in the draw areas within the framework of the local housing market context.

The target market methodology is particularly effective in defining housing potential because it encompasses not only basic demographic characteristics, such as income qualification and age, but also less-frequently analyzed attributes such as mobility rates, lifestyle patterns and household compatibility issues.

Interim Memorandum, MARKET POSITION ANALYSIS Page 2 The Bridge Street/OH 161/US 33 Corridor City of Dublin, Franklin County, Ohio August, 2009

The current constrained market—characterized throughout most of the United States by significantly reduced housing values; high levels of unsold units, both builder inventory units as well as foreclosed and/or abandoned houses; and high levels of mortgage delinquencies by speculators and investors as well as homeowners—has resulted in very restrictive development financing and mortgage underwriting, taking a significant percentage of potential homebuyers out of the market and preventing numerous for-sale developments from going forward. Nationally, financing has also been challenging for rental developers, with the result that few new residential projects, regardless of tenure, are moving forward.

These market constraints do not reduce the size of the potential market; however, depending on the timing of market entry, they could reduce the initial percentage of the potential market able to overcome those constraints.

NOTE: Tables 1 through 6 outline the depth and breadth, and composition of the potential market for new rental and for-sale housing units that could be constructed within the Bridge Street/OH 161/US 33 Corridor. Tables 7 and 8 summarize selected benchmark supply-side data. Table 9 describes the optimum market position, at market-entry, for new rental and for-sale housing units that could be constructed within the Study Area. The Appendix Tables contain migration and target market data covering the appropriate draw areas for the City of Dublin and for the Study Area.

MARKET POTENTIAL

The depth and breadth of the potential market for new market-rate dwelling units that could be constructed within the Bridge Street/OH 161/US 33 Corridor have been derived from the housing preferences and financial capacities of the draw area target households, identified through Zimmerman/Volk Associates’ proprietary target market methodology and extensive experience with New Urbanist development and redevelopment.

As derived from migration analysis—based on the most recent taxpayer records from the Internal Revenue Service—the principal draw areas for new housing units within the Study Area include the City of Dublin as well as the balance of Franklin County. The adjacent counties of Delaware, Fairfield, and Licking Counties are also significant draw areas. This analysis also factors in the market potential due to expanded employment created by companies located in the Study Area,

ZIMMERMAN/VOLK ASSOCIATES, INC. Interim Memorandum, MARKET POSITION ANALYSIS Page 3 The Bridge Street/OH 161/US 33 Corridor City of Dublin, Franklin County, Ohio August, 2009

as well as from households currently living in all other counties represented in Franklin County migration.

—TARGET RESIDENTIAL MIX—

As determined by the target market methodology, which accounts for household mobility within Dublin and Franklin County, as well as migration and mobility patterns of households currently living in all other cities and counties, just over 2,200 younger singles and couples, empty nesters and retirees, and traditional and non-traditional families currently living in the draw areas comprise the annual potential market for new residential construction within the Study Area. Based on the tenure (renter/buyer) and lifestyle preferences of the draw area households that represent the potential market for the redevelopment area, and excluding those households with preferences for larger-lot suburban single-family detached units, the target residential mix of new dwelling units within the study area would be as follows (see also Table 1):

For purposes of this analysis, the target residential mix and optimum market position for the study area have been established for a total of 1,500 units. The availability of land, the feasibility of non-residential uses, and the master planning process may indicate that either a greater or lesser number of units could be developed within the Study Area.

ZIMMERMAN/VOLK ASSOCIATES, INC. Interim Memorandum, MARKET POSITION ANALYSIS Page 4 The Bridge Street/OH 161/US 33 Corridor City of Dublin, Franklin County, Ohio August, 2009

As derived from market preferences, the target residential mix of 1,500 units would be as follows:

Based on projected market capture rates (see Absorption Forecasts below), a total of 1,500 dwelling units constructed within the Study Area, in a mix of 807 rental apartments, 425 condominiums, 175 townhouses, and 93 urban detached houses could be absorbed over a six- to six-year development period. As the Study Area is planned and actual unit yield determined, the appropriate proportions of housing types should be maintained as closely as possible.

TARGET MARKETS

The significant transformation of American households (particularly shrinking household size and the predominance of one- and two-person households) over the past decade, combined with steadily increasing traffic congestion and fluctuating gasoline prices, has resulted in important changes in neighborhood and housing preferences, with major shifts from predominantly single- family detached houses in lower-density suburbs to higher-density apartments, townhouses, and detached houses in urban and mixed-use neighborhoods. The fundamental transformation of American households is likely to continue for at least the next decade.

This transformation has been spurred by the convergence of the two largest generations in the history of America: the 78 million Baby Boomers born between 1946 and 1964, and the 76 million Millennials, who were born from 1977 to 1996. The convergence of two generations of this size—simultaneously reaching a point when urban housing matches their life stage—is unprecedented.

Mirroring this national trend, the potential market for new market-rate housing units that could be constructed within the Study Area is predominantly younger singles and couples, with a small percentage of empty nesters and retirees, and a few families (primarily townhouse and urban detached house buyers). The target groups for the site can be characterized by housing preference as follows (see also Tables 2 through 6):

For the target households, new housing in the Study Area represents an opportunity to rent or own a residence in a mixed-use environment. New housing—with new appliances in kitchens and baths, floorplans that match modern lifestyles, and ample closet space in the bedrooms—has also been a compelling rationale to move for both younger and older households around the country.

Younger singles and couples comprise 84 percent of the market for new dwelling units within the Study Area. The target groups in this segment typically choose to live in neighborhoods that contain a diverse mix of people, housing types, and uses. For the most part, younger households tend to be “risk-tolerant,” and will move into areas or neighborhoods that would not be considered acceptable for most families or older couples.

This younger market include a variety of white-collar professionals—Fast-Track Professionals, the VIPs and Upscale Suburban Couples; young entrepreneurs, artists, and “knowledge workers”—the Entrepreneurs, e-Types, New Bohemians, Twentysomethings; as well as office workers, undergraduates and graduate students, and other higher-education affiliates—No-Nest Suburbanites, Small-City Singles, Urban and Suburban Achievers.

Depending on housing type, younger singles and couples represent between 29 and 92 percent of the market for new housing units located within the Bridge Street/OH 161/US 33 Corridor. Approximately 20 percent would be moving from one unit to another within Dublin, nearly 54 percent would be moving to the Study Area from elsewhere in Franklin County, another five percent would be moving from Delaware, Fairfield, or Licking Counties; and the remaining 23 percent would be moving from elsewhere in the U.S.

Empty nesters and retirees (older singles and couples) represent just nine percent of the potential market for new dwelling units within the Study Area. A significant number no longer have children living at home; another large percentage are retirees, with incomes from pensions, savings and investments, and social security. These households—Urban Establishment, Suburban Establishment, Cosmopolitan Couples, Mainstream Retirees, Middle-Class Move-Downs, and Middle- American Retirees—are attracted to appropriately-designed “move-down” housing within walking distance of restaurants and shops. Twelve percent of these households are currently living in

ZIMMERMAN/VOLK ASSOCIATES, INC. Interim Memorandum, MARKET POSITION ANALYSIS Page 8 The Bridge Street/OH 161/US 33 Corridor City of Dublin, Franklin County, Ohio August, 2009

Dublin, 50 percent would be moving from elsewhere in Franklin County, and the remaining 38 percent from elsewhere in the U.S.

Family-oriented households (traditional and non-traditional families) make up the smallest market (just seven percent) for new units within the Study Area. The non-traditional family market groups in this segment, notably single parents with one or two children, are Full-Nest Urbanites, Multi-Cultural Families, and Multi-Ethnic Families. Non-traditional families, which during the 1990s became an increasingly larger proportion of all U.S. households, encompass a wide range of family households, from a single parent with one or more children, an adult with younger siblings, a grandparent with children and grandchildren, to an unrelated, same-sex couple with children. The traditional family market—married couples with children—includes Unibox Transferees, Nouveau Money, Late-Nest Suburbanites, and Full-Nest Suburbanites.

Depending on housing type, the family market segment represents between two and 42 percent of the market for new housing units constructed within the Study Area. More than a quarter would be moving from one unit to another within the city, almost half would be moving from elsewhere in Franklin County; and the remaining 26 percent would be moving from elsewhere in the U.S.

OPTIMUM MARKET POSITION

From the market perspective, the assets of the Study Area that would make it an attractive place to live include: • Walking distance to historic Downtown Dublin. • Walking distance to several major employers in the city. • Exceptional visibility from Interstate 270. • Approximately a half hour drive to Ohio State University in Columbus. • A short drive to a wide variety of retailers, including the Mall at Turtle Crossing south of the city.

From a market perspective, the most significant challenges associated with the Study Area are: • The indirect access to/from I-270. • The nearly complete lack of transit connecting the Study Area with any other location in Dublin, Columbus, or elsewhere in Franklin County.

The optimum market position for new market-rate housing units to be constructed within the Study Area has therefore been developed based on a variety of factors, including but not limited to: • A Goody Clancy urban master plan; • The Study Area’s assets and challenges; • The understanding that retail and other non-residential uses will also be developed within the Study Area; • The housing preferences and financial capacities of the target market households; and • Residential market dynamics in the Dublin market area.

The optimum market position, at market-entry, for approximately 1,500 new market-rate housing units within the Study area would therefore be as shown on the following page (see also Table 9):

Base rents/prices apply to first-floor units in year 2009 dollars. Unit sizes and configurations have been structured to reflect market preferences and priced to fit within the current leasing and purchasing capabilities of the target market households. The rents/prices do not include view or floor premiums, and the prices do not include buyer options and upgrades, which can be significant, ranging from five percent or more above the base prices. This analysis has not calculated affordability based on the use of non-standard mortgage instruments;, but rather typical 30-year mortgages, with at least a 10 percent down payment, at six percent interest.

It is probable that during the planning process, this precise mix and/or unit yield may not be achieved.

Rental housing should be the first housing type introduced to the market in the first phase, because rental housing is the linchpin of urban redevelopment. Rental development is important for several reasons:

• Rental apartments are essential for the establishment of “critical mass,” because rentals are absorbed at higher rates than for-sale units.

• Rentals are the fastest way to bring a large number of households to an area.

• Rentals allow households to experiment with living in an area without the mortgage commitment of home ownership.

• Renters form a pool of potential purchasers of for-sale housing types in later phases.

To meet the expectations of potential residents, all units should be wired for cable television and high-speed internet or, if practical, be served by a building-wide WiFi system. The buildings should be as environmentally-sensitive as possible. Bamboo flooring would be appropriate, with ceramic tile for the bathroom and kitchen areas. In the kitchens, buyers in particular will expect countertops to be durable, non-traditional materials, with integral or undermount sinks, standard

ZIMMERMAN/VOLK ASSOCIATES, INC. Interim Memorandum, MARKET POSITION ANALYSIS Page 27 The Bridge Street/OH 161/US 33 Corridor City of Dublin, Franklin County, Ohio August, 2009

appliances, and plain-front cabinetry; renters will expect contemporary, durable finishes appropriate to urban living, as opposed to the “beige” interiors of suburban multi-family housing. Although smaller lofts are typically designed without interior walls, with the exception of the bathroom, as much closet and storage space as possible should be provided. The more conventional apartments should be fully finished and partitioned into individual rooms but some could also contain architectural elements reminiscent of lofts, such as exposed beams, ductwork and large, commercial-style windows.

Ultimately, residential values will depend upon the establishment of urban neighborhoods in the Study Area. An urban residential neighborhood succeeds when its physical characteristics consistently emphasize urbanity and the qualities of urban life; conversely, attempts to introduce suburban scale and housing types into urban areas have invariably yielded disappointing results. Therefore, appropriate urban design—which places as much emphasis on creating quality streets and public places as on creating or developing quality buildings—will be essential to success.

—UNIT TYPES—

It is assumed that multi-family buildings will be elevator-served, with double-loaded corridors, and from four stories or more; many of these buildings should be able to accommodate retail spaces on the ground floor. The proposed unit types include hard and soft lofts, apartment flats, rowhouses and live-work units, and urban houses.

• Hard Loft : Unit interiors typically have high ceilings and commercial windows and are minimally finished (with minimal room delineations such as columns and fin walls), or unfinished (with no interior partitions except those for bathrooms).

• Soft Loft : Unit interiors typically have open floorplans, high ceilings and large commercial-style windows, but are fully finished and, where appropriate, have sleeping areas partitioned from the main living area. A soft loft may also contain architectural elements reminiscent of “hard lofts,” e.g.—exposed ductwork.

ZIMMERMAN/VOLK ASSOCIATES, INC. Interim Memorandum, MARKET POSITION ANALYSIS Page 28 The Bridge Street/OH 161/US 33 Corridor City of Dublin, Franklin County, Ohio August, 2009

• Apartment Flat : Conventionally-finished apartment unit on a single level, with completely-partitioned rooms. In this case, finishes and fixtures—trim, interior doors, kitchens and baths—should be offered in a choice of modern or traditional styles.

• Rowhouse : Similar in form to a conventional suburban townhouse except that the garage—either attached or detached—is located to the rear of the unit and accessed from an alley or auto court. Unlike conventional townhouses, urban townhouses conform to the pattern of streets, typically with shallow front-yard setbacks. To provide privacy and a sense of security, the first floor should be elevated significantly above the sidewalk.

• Live - work is a unit or building type that accommodates non-residential uses in addition to, or combined with living quarters. The typical live-work unit is a building, either attached or detached, with a principal dwelling unit that includes flexible space that can be used as office, retail, or studio space, or as an accessory dwelling unit.

Regardless of the form they take, live-work units should be flexible in order to respond to economic, social and technological changes over time and to accommodate as wide as possible a range of potential uses. The unit configuration must also be flexible in order to comply with the requirements of the Fair Housing Amendments Act and the Americans with Disabilities Act.

• Urban House : A one - to two-story single-family detached house, on a small lot, with the garage located to the rear of the house and accessed from an alley or auto courts.

—ABSORPTION FORECASTS—

After more than 20 years’ experience in numerous cities across the country, and in the context of the target market methodology, Zimmerman/Volk Associates has determined that those households that can afford, and would prefer new construction, rather than existing or renovated units, represent approximately five to 15 percent of the potential market, given the production of appropriately-positioned new housing. (Until the collapse of the housing market in the fall of 2008, newly-constructed dwelling units represented 15 percent of all units sold in the nation.)

ZIMMERMAN/VOLK ASSOCIATES, INC. Interim Memorandum, MARKET POSITION ANALYSIS Page 29 The Bridge Street/OH 161/US 33 Corridor City of Dublin, Franklin County, Ohio August, 2009

Over the near term, absorption rates are likely to be lower than the annual number of units forecast below due to the uncertain timing of a mortgage and housing market recovery. As noted in the INTRODUCTION, the current constrained market is characterized in many locations by reduced housing prices, high levels of unsold units, high levels of mortgage delinquencies and foreclosures, and restrictive mortgage underwriting and development finance. These market constraints do not reduce the size of the potential market; however, depending on the timing of market entry, they could reduce the initial percentage of the potential market able to overcome those constraints.

Assuming a capture rate of 10 percent, absorption of 1,500 new dwelling units within the Study Area would likely be achieved within approximately seven years, depending on phasing, construction and site constraints, and predicated on no worsening of the national, regional and local economies.

Annual absorption for the Study Area is forecast as follows: Annual Average Absorption BRIDGE STREET/OH 161/US 33 CORRIDOR City of Dublin, Franklin County, Ohio Multi-family for-rent 120 units net of turnover Lofts/apartments Multi-family for-sale 63 units Lofts/apartments Single-family attached for-sale 26 units Rowhouses/live-work Single-family urban detached for-sale 14 units Urban houses Total 223 units

SOURCE: Zimmerman/Volk Associates, Inc., 2009.

A 10 capture rate of the 2,230 households, identified through target market analysis, that have the potential to rent or purchase new housing units within the Study Area in the year 2009 is well within the target market methodology’s parameters of feasibility.

ZIMMERMAN/VOLK ASSOCIATES, INC. Interim Memorandum, MARKET POSITION ANALYSIS Page 30 The Bridge Street/OH 161/US 33 Corridor City of Dublin, Franklin County, Ohio August, 2009

NOTE: The target market capture rates of the potential purchaser pool are a unique and highly- refined measure of feasibility. Target market capture rates are not equivalent to—and should not be confused with—penetration rates or traffic conversion rates.

The target market capture rate is derived by dividing the annual forecast absorption by the number of households that have the potential to move to the site in a given year.

The penetration rate is derived by dividing the total number of dwelling units planned for a property by the total number of draw area households, sometimes qualified by income.

The traffic conversion rate is derived by dividing the total number of buyers or renters by the total number of prospects that have visited a site.

Because the prospective market for a property is more precisely defined using target market methodology, a substantially smaller number of households are qualified; as a result, target market capture rates are higher than the more grossly-derived penetration rates. The resulting higher capture rates remain within the range of feasibility.

METHODOLOGY

The technical analysis of market potential for the Bridge Street/OH 161/US 33 Corridor included delineation of the draw areas and physical evaluation of the Study Area and the surrounding context.

The delineation of the draw areas for housing within the City of Dublin was based on historic settlement patterns, migration trends for Franklin County (most of the city is located in Franklin), interviews with key stakeholders in the Study Area, including major employers located there, and other market dynamics.

The evaluation of market potential for the Study Area was derived from the housing preferences and financial capacities of the draw area households, identified through Zimmerman/Volk Associates’ proprietary target market methodology, and yielded:

• The depth and breadth of the potential housing market by tenure (rental and ownership) and by type (lofts/apartments, rowhouse/live-work units, urban detached houses); and

• The composition of the potential housing market (empty-nesters/retirees, younger singles/couples, traditional and non-traditional families).

NOTE: The Appendix Tables are provided in a separate document.

Delineation of the Draw Areas (Migration Analysis)—

Based on Zimmerman/Volk Associates’ field investigation, interviews with key stakeholders in the Study Area, analysis of migration and mobility data, including data provided by the City of Dublin, the draw areas for new residential construction within the Study Area have been delineated. Taxpayer migration data provide the framework for the delineation of the draw areas—the principal counties of origin for households that are likely to move to Franklin County and the City of Dublin. These data are maintained at the county and “county equivalent” level by the Internal Revenue Service and provide a clear representation of mobility patterns.

ZIMMERMAN/VOLK ASSOCIATES, INC. Interim Memorandum, MARKET POSITION ANALYSIS Page 32 The Bridge Street/OH 161/US 33 Corridor City of Dublin, Franklin County, Ohio August, 2009

Appendix One, Table 1. Migration Trends

Between 2002 through 2006—the latest data available from the Internal Revenue Service—the annual number of households moving into Franklin County climbed from just over 26,500 households in 2002 to 28,735 households in 2006. (Reference Appendix One, Table 1.)

Over the same period, the number of households moving out of Franklin County fell from just under 28.500 households in 2002 to 27,560 in 2006. As a result, over five years, Franklin County net migration patterns have been reversed, from net household migration losses in 2002 and 2003 to net household gains from 2004 through 2006, with the county gaining nearly 1,200 households in 2006.

For Franklin County, between 17 and 21 percent of in-migration is from neighboring Delaware, Fairfield, and Licking Counties; and the remaining 79 to 83 is from counties from elsewhere in Ohio as well as the rest of the United States.

NOTE: Although net migration provides insights into the county’s historic ability to attract or retain households compared to other locations, it is those households likely to move into the county (gross in- migration) that represent the county’s external market potential.

Based on the migration data, then, the draw areas for Franklin County, the City of Dublin and the Bridge Street/OH 161/US 33 Corridor have been delineated as follows:

• The primary (internal) draw area, covering households currently living within the City of Dublin.

• The local (external) draw area, covering households currently living within the balance of Franklin County.

• The regional draw area, covering households with the potential to move to Franklin County from Delaware, Fairfield, and Licking Counties.

ZIMMERMAN/VOLK ASSOCIATES, INC. Interim Memorandum, MARKET POSITION ANALYSIS Page 33 The Bridge Street/OH 161/US 33 Corridor City of Dublin, Franklin County, Ohio August, 2009

• The national draw area, covering households with the potential to move to Franklin County from all other counties in Ohio and the U.S.

Anecdotal information obtained from real estate brokers, sales agents, and other knowledgeable sources corresponded to the migration data.

Migration Methodology :

County-to-county migration is based on the year-to-year changes in the addresses shown on the population of returns from the Internal Revenue Service Individual Master File system. Data on migration patterns by county, or county equivalent, for the entire United States, include inflows and outflows. The data include the number of returns (which can be used to approximate the number of households), and the median and average incomes reported on the returns.

TARGET MARKET CLASSIFICATION OF CITY OF DUBLIN AND FRANKLIN COUNTY HOUSEHOLDS—

Geo-demographic data obtained from Claritas, Inc. provide the framework for the categorization of households, not only by demographic characteristics, but also by lifestyle preferences and socio- economic factors. For purposes of this study, only those household groups with median incomes that enable most of the households within each group to qualify for market-rate housing are included in the tables . An appendix containing detailed descriptions of each of these target market groups is provided along with the study.

Appendix One, Tables 2 and 3. Target Market Classification

Nearly 97 percent, or 14,615 households, of the estimated 15,130 households living in the City of Dublin in 2009 have the capacity to rent or buy market-rate housing. Median income within the city is estimated at $98,900, almost double the national median of $51,400. Median home value within the city is estimated at $293,200, more than 70 percent higher than the national median of $172,400. Nearly 43 percent of Dublin’s “market-rate” households can be classified as traditional and non-traditional families, another 41 percent as younger singles and couples, and the remaining 16.6 percent as empty nesters and retirees. (See Appendix One, Table 2.)

ZIMMERMAN/VOLK ASSOCIATES, INC. Interim Memorandum, MARKET POSITION ANALYSIS Page 34 The Bridge Street/OH 161/US 33 Corridor City of Dublin, Franklin County, Ohio August, 2009

Of the estimated 466,830 households living in Franklin County in 2009, approximately 72.2 percent, or 337,145 households, have the capacity to rent or buy market-rate housing. Median income within the county is estimated at $49,100, more than four percent below the national median and less than half that of Dublin. Median home value is estimated at $143,700, nearly 17 percent below the nation and again, less than half that of Dublin. Approximately 42 percent of the county’s “market-rate” households can be classified as younger singles and couples, with 32.3 percent traditional and non-traditional families, and 25 percent empty nesters and retirees. (See Appendix One, Table 3.)

Target Market Methodology :

The proprietary target market methodology developed by Zimmerman/Volk Associates is an analytical technique, using the PRIZM NE household clustering system, that establishes the optimum market position for residential development of any property—from a specific site to an entire political jurisdiction—through cluster analysis of households living within designated draw areas. In contrast to classical supply/demand analysis—which is based on supply-side dynamics and baseline demographic projections—target market analysis establishes the optimum market position derived from the housing and lifestyle preferences of households in the draw area and within the framework of the local housing market context, even in locations where no close comparables exist.

In the target market methodology, clusters of households (usually between 10 and 15) are grouped according to a variety of significant factors, ranging from basic demographic characteristics, such as income qualification and age, to less-frequently considered attributes such as mobility rates, lifestyle patterns and compatibility issues. Zimmerman/Volk Associates has refined the analysis of these household clusters through the correlation of more than 500 data points related to housing preferences and consumer and lifestyle characteristics.

As a result of this process, Zimmerman/Volk Associates has identified 41 target market groups with median incomes that enable most of the households within each group to qualify for market- rate housing. The most affluent of the 41 groups can afford the most expensive new ownership units; the least prosperous are candidates for the least expensive existing rental apartments.

ZIMMERMAN/VOLK ASSOCIATES, INC. Interim Memorandum, MARKET POSITION ANALYSIS Page 35 The Bridge Street/OH 161/US 33 Corridor City of Dublin, Franklin County, Ohio August, 2009

Once the draw areas for a property have been defined, then—through field investigation, analysis of historic migration and development trends, and employment and commutation patterns—the households within those areas are quantified using the target market methodology. The potential market for new market-rate units is then determined by the correlation of a number of factors—including, but not limited to: household mobility rates; median incomes; lifestyle characteristics and housing preferences; the location of the site; and the competitive environment.

The end result of this series of filters is the optimum market position—by tenure, building configuration and household type, including specific recommendations for unit sizes, rents and/or prices—and projections of absorption within the local housing context.

DETERMINATION OF THE POTENTIAL MARKET FOR NEW AND EXISTING HOUSING UNITS IN THE CITY OF DUBLIN (MOBILITY ANALYSIS)—

The mobility tables, individually and in summaries, indicate the number and type of households that have the potential to rent or purchase new and existing dwelling units in the City of Dublin in the year 2009. The total number from each county is derived from historic migration trends; the number of households from each group is based on each group’s mobility rate.

Appendix One, Table 4. Internal Mobility (Households Moving Within the City of Dublin)—

Zimmerman/Volk Associates uses U.S. Bureau of the Census data, combined with Claritas data, and supplemented with American Communities Survey data, to determine the number of households in each target market group that will move from one residence to another within a specific jurisdiction in a given year (internal mobility).

Using these data, Zimmerman/Volk Associates has determined that up to 1,700 households, currently living in the City of Dublin have the potential to rent or purchase new or existing dwelling units in the City of Dublin this year. Nearly 64 percent of these households are likely to be younger singles and couples (as characterized within six Zimmerman/Volk Associates’ target market groups); another 30.6 percent are likely to be traditional and non-traditional families (in

ZIMMERMAN/VOLK ASSOCIATES, INC. Interim Memorandum, MARKET POSITION ANALYSIS Page 36 The Bridge Street/OH 161/US 33 Corridor City of Dublin, Franklin County, Ohio August, 2009

seven market groups); and the remaining 5.9 percent are likely to be empty nesters and retirees (in five groups).

Appendix One, Table 5. External Mobility (Households Moving To the City of Dublin from the Balance of Franklin County)

The same sources of data are used to determine the number of households in each target market group that will move from one area to another within the same county . Using these data, up to 3,650 households, currently living in the balance of Franklin County, have the potential to move from a residence in the county outside the City of Dublin to a residence in the city this year. More than 69 percent of these households are likely to be younger singles and couples (in 14 market groups); up to 22.7 percent are likely to be traditional and non-traditional families (in 11 groups); and 7.9 percent are likely to be empty nesters and retirees (in 14 groups).

Appendix One, Tables 6 and 7; Appendix Two, Tables 1 through 3. External Mobility (Households Moving To the City of Dublin)—

These tables determine the number of households in each target market group living in the regional (Delaware, Fairfield, and Licking Counties) and national draw areas that are likely to move to the City of Dublin in 2009 (through a correlation of Claritas data, U.S. Bureau of the Census data, and the Internal Revenue Service migration data).

Appendix One, Table 8. Market Potential for New and Existing Units in the City of Dublin—

This table summarizes Appendix One, Tables 4 through 7. The numbers in the Total column on page one of this table indicate the depth and breadth of the potential market for new and existing market-rate dwelling units in the City of Dublin in the year 2009 originating from households currently living in the draw areas. Approximately 8,200 households in the draw areas have the potential to move to the City of Dublin this year. Younger singles and couples are likely to account for nearly 62 percent of these households (in 14 market groups); over 27 percent are likely to be traditional and non-traditional families (in 13 groups); and 11 percent are likely to be empty nesters and retirees (in 14 groups).

DETERMINATION OF THE POTENTIAL MARKET FOR NEW DWELLING UNITS IN THE BRIDGE STREET/OH 161/US 33 CORRIDOR —

The total potential market for new dwelling units in the study area also includes the local, regional, and national draw areas. Zimmerman/Volk Associates uses U.S. Bureau of the Census data, combined with Claritas data, to determine which target market groups, as well as how many households within each group, are likely to move to a given location in a given year.

Appendix One, Tables 9 through 11. Market Potential for New Housing Units in the Bridge Street/OH 161/US 33 Corridor—

As derived by the target market methodology, up to 2,800 of the 8,200 households that represent the market for new and existing housing units in the City of Dublin are a market for new housing units within the Study Area. (See Appendix One, Table 9.) Approximately 84 percent of these households are likely to be younger singles and couples (in 11 market groups); another 9.3 percent are likely to be empty nesters and retirees (in nine groups); and the remaining 6.8 percent are likely to be traditional and non-traditional family households (in seven groups).

The distribution of the draw areas as a percentage of the potential market for new dwelling units within the Study Area is shown on the following page:

SOURCE: Zimmerman/Volk Associates, Inc., 2009.

The 2,800 draw area households that have the potential to move to the Study Area this year have also been analyzed by tenure propensities to determine the appropriate renter/owner ratios. Approximately 42.9 percent of these households (or 1,200 households) comprise the potential market for new rental units. The remaining 57.1 percent (or 1,60 households) comprise the market for new for-sale (ownership) housing units. (See Appendix One, Table 10.)

Of the 1,600 households that comprise the market for new for-sale housing units, 39.4 percent (or 630 households) comprise the market for new multi-family for-sale units (condominium/cooperative lofts/apartments); another 16.3 percent (260 households) comprise the market for attached single-family (rowhouse/live-work) units; and the remaining 44.4 percent (710 households) comprise the market for all ranges of new single-family detached houses. (See Appendix One, Table 11.)

—Target Market Data—

Target market data are based on the Claritas PRIZM NE household clustering system, modified and augmented by Zimmerman/Volk Associates as the basis for its proprietary target market methodology. Target market data provides number of households by cluster aggregated into the three main demographic categories—empty nesters and retirees; traditional and non-traditional families; and younger singles and couples.

Zimmerman/Volk Associates’ target market classifications are updated periodically to reflect the slow, but relentless change in the composition of American households. Because of the nature of geo-demographic segmentation, a change in household classification is directly correlated with a

ZIMMERMAN/VOLK ASSOCIATES, INC. Interim Memorandum, MARKET POSITION ANALYSIS Page 39 The Bridge Street/OH 161/US 33 Corridor City of Dublin, Franklin County, Ohio August, 2009

change in geography, i.e.—a move from one neighborhood condition to another. However, these changes of classification can also reflect an alteration in one of three additional basic characteristics: • Age; • Household composition; or • Economic status.

Age, of course, is the most predictable, and easily-defined of these changes. Household composition has also been relatively easy to define; recently, with the growth of non-traditional households, however, definitions of a family have had to be expanded and parsed into more highly-refined segments. Economic status remains clearly defined through measures of annual income and household wealth.

A change in classification is rarely induced by a change in just one of the four basic characteristics. This is one reason that the target household categories are so highly refined: they take in multiple characteristics. Even so, there are some rough equivalents in household types as they move from one neighborhood condition to another. There is, for example, a strong correlation between the Suburban Achievers and the Urban Achievers; a move by the Suburban Achievers to the urban core can make them Urban Achievers, if the move is accompanied by an upward move in socio- economic status. In contrast, Suburban Achievers who move up socio-economically, but remain within the metropolitan suburbs may become Upscale Suburban Couples or Fast-Track Professionals.

Household Classification Methodology :

Household classifications were originally based on the Claritas PRIZM geo-demographic segmentation system that was established in 1974 and then replaced by PRIZM NE in 2005. The revised household classifications are based on PRIZM NE which was developed through unique classification and regression trees delineating 66 specific clusters of American households. The system is now accurate to the individual household level, adding self-reported and list-based household data to geo-demographic information. The process applies hundreds of demographic variables to nearly 10,000 “behaviors.”

ZIMMERMAN/VOLK ASSOCIATES, INC. Interim Memorandum, MARKET POSITION ANALYSIS Page 40 The Bridge Street/OH 161/US 33 Corridor City of Dublin, Franklin County, Ohio August, 2009

Over the past 21 years, Zimmerman/Volk Associates has augmented the PRIZM cluster systems for use within the company’s proprietary target market methodology specific to housing and neighborhood preferences, with additional algorithms, correlation with geo-coded consumer data, aggregation of clusters by broad household definition, and unique cluster names. o

ASSUMPTIONS AND LIMITATIONS—

Every effort has been made to insure the accuracy of the data contained within this analysis. Demographic and economic estimates and projections have been obtained from government agencies at the national, state, and county levels. Market information has been obtained from sources presumed to be reliable, including developers, owners, and/or sales agents. However, this information cannot be warranted by Zimmerman/Volk Associates, Inc. While the methodology employed in this analysis allows for a margin of error in base data, it is assumed that the market data and government estimates and projections are substantially accurate.

Absorption scenarios are based upon the assumption that a normal economic environment will prevail in a relatively steady state during development of the subject property. Absorption paces are likely to be slower during recessionary periods and faster during periods of recovery and high growth. Absorption scenarios are also predicated on the assumption that the product recommendations will be implemented generally as outlined in this report and that the developer will apply high-caliber design, construction, marketing, and management techniques to the development of the property.

Recommendations are subject to compliance with all applicable regulations. Relevant accounting, tax, and legal matters should be substantiated by appropriate counsel. o

ASSUMPTIONS AND LIMITATIONS—

Every effort has been made to insure the accuracy of the data contained within this analysis. Demographic and economic estimates and projections have been obtained from government agencies at the national, state, and county levels. Market information has been obtained from sources presumed to be reliable, including developers, owners, and/or sales agents. However, this information cannot be warranted by Zimmerman/Volk Associates, Inc. While the methodology employed in this analysis allows for a margin of error in base data, it is assumed that the market data and government estimates and projections are substantially accurate.

Absorption scenarios are based upon the assumption that a normal economic environment will prevail in a relatively steady state during development of the subject property. Absorption paces are likely to be slower during recessionary periods and faster during periods of recovery and high growth. Absorption scenarios are also predicated on the assumption that the product recommendations will be implemented generally as outlined in this report and that the developer will apply high-caliber design, construction, marketing, and management techniques to the development of the property.

Recommendations are subject to compliance with all applicable regulations. Relevant accounting, tax, and legal matters should be substantiated by appropriate counsel. o

OFFICE, RETAIL AND EAT/DRINK, AND HOTEL MARKET ANALYSIS

City of Dublin and the Bridge Street District

Prepared For: The City of Dublin, OH

Prepared By: W-ZHA, LLC

March, 2019

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

STUDY PURPOSE

W-ZHA, LLC was retained by the City of Dublin to update W-ZHA’s late-2009 Market Analysis conducted as part of the Bridge Street Plan. This report summarizes Dublin’s office, retail and eat/drink, and hotel market trends and projects market potential for each land use over the next 10 years. The potential for the Bridge Street District to capture these opportunities is summarized.

HIGHLIGHTS OF RECENT TRENDS AND DEVELOPMENTS

Demographics

• Between 2010 and 2018, population and households have grown at a faster rate in the Columbus Metropolitan Area as compared to Ohio and the United States. • Dublin’s rate of population and household growth exceeded the Metropolitan Area average 2010 and 2018. • Dublin’s population is better educated and households have a higher median income than the Metropolitan Area average. • Dublin has a smaller share of its population in the 25 to 34 year old cohort as compared to the Metropolitan Area and the City of Columbus. However, between 2010 and 2018, this cohort grew by over 25% in Dublin. This cohort is considered valuable to City economic development and for business retention, expansion, and recruitment.

Employment

• While Dublin is a suburb of Columbus it is not a bedroom community. There are more jobs in Dublin (Dublin Economic Development Department, 70,000 jobs), than there are residents (ESRI 2018 Estimate, 47,540 residents). • Dublin jobs are concentrated in professional and business services. Among those Dublin residents who work almost 80% are in white collar occupations. • Jobs grew at a compound average annual growth rate of 2.1% in Columbus Metropolitan Area and Franklin County between 2009 and 2016. This rate of job growth was higher than the national average (1.4%) over this timeframe. • According to projections by Moody’s Analytics, jobs in the Columbus Metropolitan Area and Franklin County are projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 1.1% between 2016 and 2026. These projected growth rates are faster than Moody’s Analytics projects for the U.S. economy over this timeframe (0.8% compound average annual growth rate).

The Bridge Street District and Bridge Park

The Bridge Street District is one of seven business districts in the City of Dublin. The Bridge Street District’s Vision is to have highly walkable neighborhoods on both sides of the Scioto River. The District’s Vision is to expand choices in housing, employment, activities and transportation to attract new generations of residents, businesses and visitors. As envisioned, the Bridge Street District will function as a special space not only within Dublin, but within the region, nation and world.

Bridge Park is a major public/private development project that embodies the Bridge Street District’s Vision. Bridge Park is being developed by Crawford Hoying Development. With a mix of office, residential, hotel, entertainment, eating and drinking and retail uses, Bridge Park is an urban district that complements and expands Downtown Dublin’s offerings.

Figure I-1

Bridge Park Vision

Currently under-construction, a pedestrian bridge connecting both side of the Scioto River as well as Riverside Crossing Park are signature amenities of the project. Bridge Park’s plans include 840,000 square feet of office space, 195,000 square feet of retail and restaurant space, 870 residential units, two hotels (295 rooms) and event space. The project will also include 2,400 parking spaces.

Bridge Park is changing Dublin’s position within the regional office, retail/restaurant/entertainment and hotel markets. Interviews with office tenants located within Bridge Park considered the mixed-use and iii

walkable character of the project advantageous for staff, company team-building and visitor satisfaction.

Office tenants located outside of Bridge Park mentioned that Bridge Park has created “buzz” that has put Dublin on the map. This “buzz” is considered good for their brand. The ability for office visitors to have a nearby walkable, mixed-use, eat, drink and entertainment destination was also considered advantageous. All office tenants mentioned that the meeting space in Bridge Park is a valuable addition to Dublin’s business infrastructure.

Bridge Park contains a number of restaurants and entertainment venues. As part of the market analysis process, owners and managers of a number of these establishments were interviewed. The restaurants’ performance has exceeded expectations and they are busy every day. There was confidence that there was considerably more capacity within the market to support additional eating and drinking and entertainment establishments on both sides of the Scioto River.

Bridge Park is improving all segments of the hotel business. It used to be that Dublin would lose the business visitor to Downtown Columbus if the business visitor was seeking a mixed-use, dynamic environment within walking distance or in proximity to their hotel. Bridge Park has allowed Dublin to offer such an environment to the business traveler.

Like the business market, the additional offerings provided at Bridge Park are attractive to the leisure and group markets. These visitors like to explore and have things to do. While not necessarily in Bridge Park, Dublin hotels market Bridge Park as an attraction to prospective groups like weddings. There is real economic synergy occurring between Bridge Park and hotels in the Dublin market.

THE OFFICE MARKET

Observations

• Dublin has over 9 million square feet of office space. • Dublin has considerably more office space as compared to other suburban Columbus sub- markets and Dublin’s office space is mostly Class A. • The Columbus office market has expanded over the last 7 years both in overall supply and occupancy. Dublin has participated in this growth. • Dublin’s Class A rents continue to be among the highest in the Columbus market. • Dublin’s for-lease office market struggles with large blocks of available space, while for-lease buildings designed to be multi-tenant are well occupied. • Technology and workforce dynamics are disrupting the office market. • Bridge Park is a successful office location and critical to sustaining Dublin’s multi-tenant office market. iv

Office Potential and Competitive Positioning

Employment projections and the expectation that the amount of office space per employee will continue to decline form the basis of the office projection. The lower end of the range is more conservative because it assumes existing occupied space retains its level of occupancy with less space per worker. The higher end of the range is driven by employee demand alone.

Source: Moody's Analytics; W-ZHA F:\8000s, misc\82378 Dublin Market Update\[demo (Autosaved).xlsx]sub

Each year from 2011 to 2018, Dublin accounted for 21% to 22% of occupied space in the suburbs. Bridge Park has certainly improved the City’s competitive position in the market. As such, it has been assumed that Dublin can capture 21.5%, of suburban office demand over the next 10 years. With this assumption, the market has the potential to support between 640,000 and 907,000 square feet of office space in Dublin.

Bridge Park has 200,000 square feet of office built and occupied. There are 80,000 square feet of office under-construction and another 120,000 square feet poised for construction. There are an additional 500,000 square feet of office planned for Bridge Park. Bridge Park and the Bridge Park District will likely capture most of the City’s office potential over the next 10 years.

To improve the competitiveness of Dublin’s older office supply will require investment. Some buildings may be able to be updated to offer more natural light, smaller tenant spaces, open floorplans and state- of-the-art building systems. Outdoor amenities like walking trails and nearby eat/drink establishments are also important to the office tenant. Finally, accessible and convenient bicycle, pedestrian and transit v

connections to Downtown Dublin, Bridge Park and other destinations are necessary to offer suburban office tenants convenient access to desired amenities.

THE RETAIL AND EAT/DRINK MARKET

Observations

• The City of Dublin contains approximately 2 million square feet of retail space. Dublin’s retail space is targeted to serving local community and business needs. Retail sales versus spending potential data demonstrate that the City is not a regional shopping destination. • Whereas the City of Dublin experiences retail spending leakage, eating and drinking sales equate to the market’s spending potential. Thirty percent of the City’s eating and drinking sales occurred in the Bridge Street District in 2017. • Dublin has very strong demographics as compared to its two primary suburban competitors: Polaris and Easton. Even with this market advantage, Dublin’s retail and eat/drink sales trail these competitors’. • Dublin’s market has characteristics that are different from the Polaris and Easton markets as well as the urban districts like Short North and Grandview Yard. • Bridge Park has proven to be a successful eat/drink and entertainment investment location and there is considerably more potential available in the market. • Retail development and the retail shopping experience are changing nationally. These changes impact the type and magnitude of retail store potential.

Retail and Eat/Drink Potential and Competitive Positioning

There is potential for additional eating and drinking in the Bridge Street District. Most of this potential will likely be realized in and near Bridge Park and Downtown Dublin because these areas all already destinations and there is residential and office density within walking distance nearby. More residential and office development will only help to support Bridge Park and Downtown offerings.

Source: ESRI; W-ZHA

At a 15% capture rate by 2023 Dublin can support approximately 100,000 square feet of additional eating and drinking space in the Bridge Street District. Note that some of this space has been built as part of Bridge Park because existing eat/drink sales data are from 2017 when many restaurants in Bridge Park were not open. With a critical mass of eating and drinking and entertainment establishments, the Bridge Street District’s drawing power should increase. By 2028, the Bridge Street District has the potential to capture 20% of market area eat/drink spending potential (or 188,300 square feet) as many successful downtowns are able to do. It is important to note that additional office and residential development in the District is necessary to support additional eating and drinking sales.

Retail development potential is contingent upon the development project, itself. Given the state of the retail industry, it unlikely that a standalone retail center will be feasible in the Bridge Street District over the next 10 years. More likely existing retail centers like the Shoppes at River’s Edge will be re- positioned to target the markets attracted to Bridge Park and Downtown Dublin. Specialty retailers appealing to the high-end market make sense at this location.

Given retail industry trends, it is unlikely that Dublin Village Center (DVC) in its current configuration will reinvent itself as a retail center. DVC is designed for the automobile with buildings designed for relatively large tenants. Nevertheless, because of its site size, DVC is one location in the Bridge Street District that could be redeveloped as a retail-based, mixed-use town center over the longer term. Land assembly at the western end of the Bridge Street District (at or near OCLC) is another possible location. Without a major retail-based, mixed-use project, retail development prospects in the Bridge Street District are relatively modest.

Bridge Park was not conceived of as a retail-based mixed-use project. Bridge Park is an urban district that functions as a business and entertainment center as well as an urban neighborhood. To optimize its market position, the key to its success is not retail per se, but land uses that contribute to the urban “vibe”.

The North Market or Food Hall concept is a good example. Office employees are given more affordable food choices and residents benefit from the amenity. North Market is a visitor destination as well. Other types of retail and services that may support the project’s positioning include health services (dentists, doctors, optometrists), a drug store, pop-up retail, micro stores (500 square feet or less), and high-end regional retailers with markets already established that want a Dublin address.

THE HOTEL MARKET

Observations

• There are 22 hotels and 2,825 rooms in the Dublin market. Four hotels have been developed in the Dublin market since 2015, increasing the Dublin market’s room supply by 19%. • The Dublin hotel market is healthy. Revenue per available room trends Indicate that new hotel product has not cannibalized the market, but grown the hotel economy. • The Dublin market continues to be weak in the winter months. Most of the hotel revenue growth has occurred in the peak months. • Dublin’s hotel market is driven by the business traveler. • Bridge Park is changing the Dublin hotel market and its prospects. • One observation made often by local businesses, the Convention & Visitor’s Bureau and hotel managers was the need for more meeting space in Dublin.

Hotel Potential and Competitive Positioning

The Dublin hotel market has proven to be deep, with occupancy and average daily rates growing as the hotel room supply has expanded. With additional office, residential and eat/drink/retail/entertainment development, the Bridge Street District will continue to be an attractive hotel investment location. This growth coupled with Dublin’s potential to become a visitor destination as the pedestrian bridge and park are completed will enhance Dublin’s competitiveness in the hotel market.

Jobs are the primary driver of the Columbus and Dublin hotel markets. Over each of the last 5 years, Dublin has accounted for 10% of the Columbus hotel market’s hotel room revenue. This capture rate was achieved in Dublin mostly without the Bridge Park urban district -- it was under-construction. With Bridge Park, Dublin’s competitive hotel position is enhanced which should increase Dublin’s hotel revenue capture rate. The projection assumes a 12.5% capture rate between 2018 and 2023 and a 13% capture rate between 2023 and 2028.

Projection does not incorporate hotel rooms that may be developed as part of a conference/convention center or new attraction. Convention and attraction hotel nights are driven by the anchor amenities, not regional employment per se. 2. Since Year-End 2018 room revenue was not available, applied the ratio of 2017 hotel room revenue to 2017 jobs to arrive at hotel room revenue per job. Source: Moody's Analytics; Smith Travel Research; W-ZHA

At these capture rates and Dublin’s current revenue per available room ($74.26), the $91.4 million (approximately) in hotel sales by 2023 will support 3,371 hotel rooms in Dublin. In 5 years there will be demand for an additional 546 rooms in the Dublin market. By 2028, the demand is projected to increase to 867 additional hotel rooms. It is important to note, that these projections do not include hotel rooms associated with a conference/convention facility and/or an attraction. Hotels associated with such anchors are largely dependent in the anchor’s development program, not regional employment trends.

New hotel development will likely occur both inside and outside the Bridge Street District. A Springhill Suites with approximately 145 rooms is already planned in Bridge Park. According to the City, a 105- room TownePlace Suites has been approved at 5155 Upper Metro Place. Another hotel has begun the building permit process on Frantz Road (room count unknown). Dublin is proving to be an attractive hotel investment location.

INTRODUCTION

STUDY PURPOSE

W-ZHA, LLC was retained by the City of Dublin to update W-ZHA’s late-2009 Market Analysis conducted as part of the Bridge Street Plan. This report summarizes Dublin’s office, retail and eat/drink, and hotel market trends and projects market potential for each land use over the next 10 years. The potential for the Bridge Street District to capture these opportunities is summarized.

The Bridge Street District

Source: City of Dublin

The Bridge Street District is one of seven business districts in the City of Dublin. The District is bound by I-270 on the north and west, properties abutting the south side of Bridge Street/Dublin-Granville Road, and Sawmill Road to the east. The Bridge Street District contains Dublin’s Downtown and Bridge Park, both mixed-use areas where a variety of land uses are within walking distance to one another. The Bridge Street District is intended to offer a unique mixed-use and walkable destination for visitors, businesses, and residents.

The Bridge Street District’s (or “Bridge Street Corridor’s”) Vision Statement is as follows:

The Bridge Street Corridor is Dublin’s centerpiece. Dublin’s historical and cultural is strengthened and balanced by highly walkable districts and neighborhoods on both sides of the Scioto River. Exceptional green spaces preserve the outstanding natural features in the corridor and seamlessly connect each unique district along the corridor. Mixed-use districts bring together complementary arrangements of living, working, and recreation in memorable settings by distinctive, human-scaled architecture and streets that invite walking and gathering. Greatly expanded choices in housing, employment, activities and transportation attract new generations of residents, businesses and visitors. The Bridge Street Corridor radiates a diversity and vitality that marks it as a special place not only within Dublin, but within the region, nation and world.

Bridge Park is a major public/private development project that embodies the Bridge Street District’s Vision. Bridge Park is being developed by Crawford Hoying Development. With a mix of office, - 5 -

residential, hotel, entertainment, eating and drinking and retail uses, Bridge Park is an urban district that complements and expands Downtown Dublin’s offerings.

Figure 6

Bridge Park Vision

Currently under-construction, a pedestrian bridge connecting both side of the Scioto River as well as Riverside Crossing Park are signature amenities of the project. Bridge Park is planned to include 840,000 square feet of office space, 195,000 square feet of retail and restaurant space, 870 residential units, two hotels (295 rooms) and event space. The project will also include 2,400 parking spaces.

ECONOMIC FRAMEWORK

SUMMARY

The purpose of the Economic Framework is to understand the economic context within which Dublin functions. Understanding the economic context is important to understanding the competitive strengths and weaknesses of Dublin in the regional marketplace. Appendix A contains the data supporting the observations summarized herein.

From a demographic and economic perspective Dublin offers the following advantages:

• Dublin’s rate of population and household growth exceeded the Metropolitan Area average between 2000 and 2010 and 2010 and 2018; • Dublin’s population is older and better educated than the Metropolitan Area average; • Dublin’s median household income is more than twice the Metropolitan Area average; • Dublin has a smaller share of its population in the 25 to 34 year old cohort as compared to the Metropolitan Area and the City of Columbus. However, between 2010 and 2018, this cohort grew by over 25% in Dublin. This cohort is considered valuable to City economic development and for business retention, expansion, and recruitment. • While Dublin is a suburb of Columbus it is not a bedroom community. There are more jobs in Dublin (Dublin Economic Development Department, 70,000 jobs), than there are residents (ESRI 2018 Estimate, 47,540 residents); • Dublin jobs are concentrated in professional and business services. Among those Dublin residents who work almost 80% are in white collar occupations; • Jobs grew at a compound average annual growth rate of 2.1% in Columbus Metropolitan Area and Franklin County between 2009 and 2016. This rate of job growth was higher than the national average (1.4%) over this timeframe; • According to projections by Moody’s Analytics, jobs in the Columbus Metropolitan Area and Franklin County are projected to grow at a compound average annual growth rate of approximately 1.1% over the next 10 years. This projected rate of growth is faster than Moody’s Analytics projects for the U.S. economy as a whole (0.8% compound average annual growth rate).

Dublin’s location, demographics and economy make it an attractive location for office tenants, households, retail and entertainment uses, and hotels. Dublin’s market is large enough and its economy diverse enough to support a broad range of land uses.

THE OFFICE MARKET

EXISTING CONDITIONS AND TRENDS

Observation: The Overall Office Market in Dublin Includes over 9 Million Square Feet.

The overall office market includes owner-occupied office space as well as for-lease office space. Colliers International, a real estate brokerage firm with offices in Columbus, tracks the overall office supply in the Columbus market.

The magnitude of Dublin’s office supply is second only to Columbus’ Central Business District. With 19.7 million square feet of office, Columbus’ Central Business District contains about twice Dublin’s office supply. Dublin has considerably more office space than Polaris, Easton and Arlington/Grandview – locations that compete with Dublin for office tenants.

Most of Dublin’s office supply (55%) is classified as Class A, which is considerably higher share than that of the overall Columbus office supply. Just over 5% of the City’s supply is considered Class C space.

Observation: The Columbus Office Market has Expanded Over the Last 7 Years Both in Overall Supply and Occupancy. Dublin has Participated in this Growth.

Between 2011 and 2018, the Columbus office market grew by 2.7 million square feet. Approximately, 30% of this growth occurred in the Central Business District and 70% of the growth occurred in the - 10 -

suburban office market. Over this seven year period, the overall vacancy rate declined from 12.2% to 9.4% and the market absorbed an average of 600,000 square feet of office per year.

Source: Colliers International, "Greater Columbus Region: Office Market Trends"; W-ZHA

The Dublin office data presented in Table 3 comes from the Colliers International’s “Greater Columbus Region: Office Market Trends” publication. This data is slightly different from the “Dublin Commercial Real Estate Statistics” report prepared by Colliers for the City of Dublin. The “Dublin Commercial Real Estate Statistics” report indicates that Dublin has 9.4 million square feet of office of which 8.55% is vacant and the “Office Market Trends Report” has Dublin’s office supply at 9.6 million with a 9.7% vacancy rate.

In either case, Dublin has maintained its share of occupied suburban office space over time. Approximately one-of-five occupied square feet in Columbus’ suburban office markets is located in Dublin. Dublin managed to absorb approximately 465,000 square feet of office space over the last 7 years or 66,400 square feet per year. Dublin’s rate of absorption was slightly slower than the suburban average. Nevertheless, Dublin’s overall office market went from being 13.4% vacant in 2011 to 9.7% vacant as of the 3rd Quarter 2018.

It is important to note that Dublin has successfully absorbed Bridge Park’s first phase of office space without increasing overall City vacancy. Bridge Park’s initial office offerings included 200,000 square feet of office. - 11 -

Observation: Dublin’s Class A Rents Continue to be Among the Highest in the Market.

Figure 9

Class A Office Asking Rent (Full-Service) Columbus Market and Dublin 2nd Quarter 2018

Source: Colliers International, “Research and Forecast Report; Columbus Office, 2nd Quarter 2018”; W-ZHA

Dublin’s average Class A office rent is among the highest in the Columbus market at $22.16 per square foot (2nd Quarter 2018). Only Easton with an average Class A rent of $24.46 per square foot is higher than Dublin. The average rent in Columbus’ suburban office market is $21.59 per square foot.

At $27 to $28 per square foot (full service gross), Bridge Park office is achieving rental rates well above Dublin’s average. Bridge Park is commanding top of the market rents, second only to possibly the Short North district in Downtown. Bridge Park’s triple net office rent is comparable to Grandview yet Grandview tenants can take advantage of tax abatements which lower their common area maintenance charges and overall cost of occupancy.

Observation: Dublin’s For-Lease Office Market Struggles with Large Blocks of Available Space; For- Lease Buildings Designed to be Multi-Tenant are Well Occupied.

Cushman & Wakefield is a commercial brokerage that tracks the Columbus for-lease office market. The for-lease office market excludes owner-occupied office buildings. In Cushman & Wakefield’s “Marketbeat Columbus: Office” reports City of Dublin’s multi-tenant office supply is split into the Dublin and the Tuttle sub-markets. Taking these two sub-markets together, Cushman & Wakefield reports that - 12 -

there are approximately 5.5 million square feet of Class A and Class B multi-tenant office space in the City. (Cushman & Wakefield does not publish Class C multi-tenant office data.) For-lease office represents approximately 58% of Dublin’s total office supply.

With 3.85 million square feet, the City of Dublin is second to Downtown Columbus in terms of multi- tenant Class A office supply.

According to Cushman & Wakefield as of the 3rd Quarter 2018, 21% of the City of Dublin’s for-lease office space was available. Dublin’s availability rate is higher than the Northwest sub-market average of 17% and the average for the Columbus market as a whole, 15%. The City’s availability rate is highest among the sub-markets Dublin competes with (Arlington/Grandview – 8.4%, Easton – 20%, and New Albany – 9.3%).

According to broker interviews, Dublin’s high vacancy rate is attributable to large tenant dynamics, not the smaller office tenant market. Dublin’s office market performance was impacted by Nationwide’s decision to consolidate and relocate office space to Grandview Yard in 2014. Nationwide’s decision resulted in approximately 700,000 square feet of Class A office space becoming available in Dublin. Other large users like Chase and Verizon also vacated space in Dublin. Large corporate moves have left Dublin with large blocks of space available for large tenants. It is this space that is driving Dublin’s high vacancy rate in leased space.

According to real estate brokers, despite an overall vacancy rate that is high, vacancy among smaller multi-tenant office buildings is much lower. Cushman & Wakefield estimates that vacancy among these multi-tenant buildings is below 10% in Dublin. The market is tight for tenants looking for 5,000 to 10,000 square feet. - 14 -

In terms of the build-to-suit market, Dublin is at a competitive disadvantage to those locations that offer tax abatement. Tax abatement can save a build-to-suit tenant $3 to $4 per square foot. For build-to- suit deals, the lack of a tax abatement puts Dublin at a competitive cost disadvantage to Polaris, Easton and other competitive sub-markets.

Observation: Technology and Workforce Dynamics are Disrupting the Office Market.

The internet and telecommunications technology have changed the way the office worker works. Telecommunications has untethered the office worker from the desk. Approximately 60% of office workers conduct some work outside of the office. Initially, this trend gave rise to a concern that the value of office space would diminish precipitously. Instead, research indicates that productivity and innovation are strongly correlated to face-to-face interactions.

Therefore, to maximize productivity and innovation, businesses are re-thinking office space design. Contemporary office design includes fewer fixed-wall-with-door offices and more flexible spaces where employees can use a desk, meet in groups, and/or socialize. As a result the average amount of space companies need per office employee has been steadily dropping from approximately 200 square feet in the early 1990’s to approximately 180 square feet in 20172. These trends have reduced the magnitude of office demand and the office characteristics necessary to fulfill demand.

While office design is evolving, the nature of the businesses seeking office space has changed. Historically, office demand was driven by finance, insurance and real estate industries together with professional and business services. More recently, office demand is driven by businesses in the technology, , media and information industries (“TAMI industries”). Businesses in the TAMI industries rely on young, knowledge workers. As such, these industries select locations that are attractive to this demographic.

The young knowledge worker is mobile, well-educated, predominantly female and more likely to be from an ethnically or racially diverse background. The young knowledge worker is digitally savvy and expects employers to have seamless technological integration between devices and locations. According to research conducted by CEOs for Cities3, they are much more likely than prior generations to land in a larger metropolitan area and live in the urban center or a close-in neighborhood. The research indicates that Millennials are more likely to choose a location that suits their lifestyle and then find a job—rather than the other way around.

Given these dynamics, many businesses rely on their office space and office location to help recruit and retain employees. The design of the office space and its location reflect the company’s values and, as such, contribute to its brand. In terms of values, employees are increasingly interested in balancing the

live, work, play dynamics of their lives. As such, the location of the office and the amenities available nearby are becoming increasingly important job criteria for prospective employees.

Research conducted by NAIOP: Commercial Real Estate Development Association indicates that “vibrant suburban centers” with a mix of land uses and amenities in a walkable setting compete more successfully for business than their single purpose, office park competitors.4 The research indicates that office parks without these amenities tend to have higher vacancy and lower rents as compared to vibrant centers. Price premiums are even more pronounced when vibrant centers have transit.

Observation: Bridge Park is a Successful Office Location and Critical to Sustaining Dublin’s Multi- Tenant Office Market.

Bridge Park has 200,000 square feet of multi-tenant office space that, according to Crawford Hoying, is fully leased. There is an 80,000 square foot multi-tenant office building currently under-construction at Bridge Park (A Block) and another 120,000 square foot office building about to commence construction (D Block). With the some of the highest office rents in the Columbus market, the mixed-use project has proven to be a very competitive office location for expanding Dublin businesses and businesses new to Dublin.

Bridge Park is a perfect example of what NAIOP terms a “vibrant suburban center”5. It offers a mix of land uses within a walkable setting. Bridge Park is amenity-rich with restaurants, a hotel, entertainment and residential offerings. As a vibrant suburban setting the only element missing is robust transit.

As part of this market analysis, W-ZHA interviewed businesses that are currently located in Bridge Park to understand both their initial selection criteria and their experience thus far at Bridge Park. Representatives from Updox, Kappa Kappa Gamma, and OSSUR (Touch Bionics) offices were interviewed. All of these businesses were looking at competitive locations for office space; Dublin was not a given. Bridge Park was what made them move or stay in Dublin.

The key features that these business representatives mentioned that factored into their decision to locate in Bridge Park were the AC hotel, restaurants, free, accessible parking and the overall quality of the project. The mixed-use and walkable character of the project is considered advantageous for staff and visitors. Both Kappa Kappa Gamma and OSSUR have many out-of-town visitors where the hotel, restaurants and entertainment within easy walking distance from the office are great locational advantages and were important to their decision to locate in Dublin. The availability of meeting space at Brick House Blue and the Exchange were also mentioned as important amenities to the location.

5 Ibid. - 16 -

Each of these businesses mentioned how Bridge Park has helped with team building and morale. Meetings can be held at the office and then participants can socialize afterward without getting in the car. There are opportunities to discuss business in a setting outside of the office. PiNs Mechanical Company was referenced multiple times as a great team building entertainment venue. In their previous locations, none of these businesses had these amenities that they now really value. The amenity package is what justifies the cost to occupy space.

Businesses located outside of Bridge Park were also interviewed to understand whether the project has had any impact on their business. Interviews were conducted with Cardinal Health, Wendy’s, IGS Energy, Bottom Line CPA, T Cetera, and DENSO. Representatives from all of these businesses mentioned that Bridge Park has created “buzz” that has put Dublin on the map. This “buzz” is considered good for their brand.

All of the businesses have gotten value out of the restaurants and walkable character of the project. Business visitors do not have to drive from their hotel to restaurant and entertainment options if they choose to stay at the AC hotel. The meeting space was mentioned as a valuable addition to Dublin’s business infrastructure. While certainly a positive factor for employee recruitment, most of these businesses simply saw Bridge Park as a valuable destination that many of their employees enjoy.

OFFICE POTENTIAL

Jobs and Office Potential

As noted earlier, technology and workforce dynamics are disrupting the office market nationally. Telecommunications and changing work dynamics have reduced the amount of office space businesses require to conduct business. Changing labor force dynamics have impacted the types of locations and building-types businesses demand.

These dynamics are evident in Columbus when reviewing occupied office space per employee data over time. Figure 12 illustrates the number of occupied office square feet (owner occupied and multi-tenant) in the Columbus market per Franklin County and Metro Area job from 2011 to 2018. The number of occupied square feet per job has dropped by 8% to 9% over this 7 year period. Consolidation and space contraction have and will continue to challenge the office market.

Jobs are projected to grow in Franklin County and the Metropolitan Area over the next 10 years.6 Franklin County job growth will likely drive the Columbus office market. Therefore, Franklin County employment projections are used as the basis for this analysis.

For purposes of projecting office space demand, it is assumed that office space per worker ratio will continue to decline into the future. For purposes of this analysis, the same rate of decline is assumed for the future as experienced from 2011 to 2018. The analysis assumes that there will be an average of 69 square feet of office demand per job in Franklin County from 2018 to 2028.

Existing Occupied Sq Ft 59,408,638 Net Office Potential 2,693,893 - 6,036,955

Source: Moody's Analytics; W-ZHA

New jobs will generate demand for approximately 6 million square feet of office space over the next 10 years. As a point of reference, the Columbus market absorbed 4.2 million square feet in the seven year period between 2011 and 2018. The projection results in the same average annual absorption, approximately 600,000 per year.

Assuming office efficiency continues to reduce space needs, by 2028 business will occupy approximately 62 million square feet in the Columbus market. There are currently 59.4 million square feet of occupied space. Thus, while new jobs may generate a demand for 6 million square feet, space contraction and consolidation in the market will free-up existing office space to potentially address a considerable portion of this demand.

Historically the suburbs have captured 70% of new office supply and office absorption. Assuming this pattern persists, Columbus’ expanding economy will result in 4.2 million square feet of new office demand in the suburbs (an average absorption of 420,000 per year). As a point of reference, the suburban markets absorbed 3.3 million square feet between 2011 and 2018, an average of 473,000 per year.

Assuming office efficiency per worker continues to reduce space needs, by 2028 business will occupy 43.4 million square feet in the Columbus suburban market.

Source: Moody's Analytics; W-ZHA

Each year from 2011 to 2018, Dublin accounted for 21% to 22% of occupied space in the suburbs. Bridge Park has certainly improved the City’s competitive position in the market. As such, it has been assumed that Dublin can capture 21.5%, of suburban office demand over the next 10 years.

With this assumption, the market has the potential to support between 640,000 and 917,000 square feet of office space in Dublin. As a point of reference, between 2011 and 2018 Dublin absorbed 465,000 square feet of office or an average of 66,400 square feet per year; the historic trend falls at the low end of the projection. Given Bridge Park’s future development plans and its success to date, the low end of the range is conservative.

Competitive Positioning and Bridge Street District Office Potential

Bridge Park has 200,000 square feet of office built and occupied. There are 80,000 square feet of office under-construction and another 120,000 square feet poised for construction. There are an additional 500,000 square feet of office planned for Bridge Park. So far, Bridge Park is an attractive location for small- to mid-size office tenants (mostly under 30,000 square feet) seeking a mixed-use walkable environment with amenities.

The project is successfully attracting these tenants at rents that are some of the highest in the Columbus market. In addition to rent, these tenants are paying relatively high common area maintenance expenses because there is no tax abatement at Bridge Park. High occupancy and premium rents at Bridge Park speak to its competitiveness as an office location. - 21 -

The Bridge Park experience is not unusual as evidenced by research conducted by NAIOP. Vibrant suburban centers have higher occupancy, rents and absorption than their single use, office park competitors.7 Because it already has the live, work, play amenities the market demands, Bridge Park positions the City to achieve the higher end of the office potential range. With Bridge Park, the Bridge Street District is well positioned to capture a lion-share of the City’s office potential over the next 10 years.

It is important to note, that while most of the City’s office potential will be captured in the Bridge Street District, there will be benefits to Dublin’s other office districts. In interviews with representatives from businesses in office space outside of Bridge Park indicated that it functions as an amenity. Rather than Downtown Columbus, these businesses entertain and accommodate business visitors at Bridge Park. According to interviews, the contemporary mixed-use project linked with Downtown Dublin gives the City a “cool vibe” that Dublin has not had in the past.

To improve the competitiveness of Dublin’s older office supply will require investment. Some buildings may be able to be updated to offer more natural light, smaller tenant spaces, open floorplans and state- of-the-art building systems. Outdoor amenities like walking trails and nearby eat/drink establishments are also important to the office tenant. Finally, accessible and convenient transit connections to Downtown Dublin, Bridge Park and other destinations will offer tenants in more suburban locations convenient access to desired amenities.

THE RETAIL AND EAT/DRINK MARKET

EXISTING CONDITIONS

Observation: The City of Dublin Contains Approximately 2 Million Square Feet of Retail Space. Dublin’s Retail Space is Targeted to Serving Local Community and Business Needs. Retail Sales Versus Spending Potential Data Demonstrate that the City is Not a Regional Shopping Destination.

Figure 13

Type of Retail Dublin Market 3rd Quarter 2018 Mixed-Use 16%

Freestanding/Big Box 20% Shopping Center 64%

Dublin’s retail and eating and drinking space is mostly located in shopping centers. There are shopping centers in the Bridge Street District as well as north on Sawmill Road and west on Avery Road. Dublin’s shopping centers contain stores that cater to the everyday needs of the local community; Dublin does not have a regional shopping center. The Mall at Tuttle Crossing is regional mall immediately south of Dublin.

In the Bridge Street District retail and eating and drinking establishments are mostly concentrated along Sawmill Road and Bridge Street/ Dublin-Granville Road. Dublin’s Historic District contains unique shops and a number of restaurants in a walkable, downtown environment.

On the western end of the Bridge District is the Dublin Plaza Shopping Center. This 240,000 square foot strip center is anchored by a Kroger and is 100% leased. In addition to the Kroger, the center is - 23 -

anchored by a CVS and a hardware store. According to its owners, Dublin Plaza Shopping Center is a highly successful, neighborhood shopping center.

Bridge Park contains a mix of land uses that includes a number of restaurants as well as PiNs, an entertainment venue. At this time, Bridge Park contains relatively little retail (ZerOz, Bend Active and recently announced Alma Mater apparel). With rent in the mid-$30’s and little critical mass, Bridge Park is a tough location for shopper’s goods stores. The Bridge Park Master Plan foresees 195,000 square feet of retail, entertainment and restaurant space at build-out.

The Shoppes at River Ridge is a 100,000 square foot shopping center. With the exception of the currently vacant Montgomery Inn restaurant, the center is relatively well occupied. Rent at the Shoppes at River Ridge is half that of Bridge Park; better economics for shoppers goods stores. There are a mix of independent stores and credit tenants in the center. An affiliate of the developers of Bridge Park own the Shoppes at River Ridge.

Dublin Village Center contains 369,000 square feet of space on 58 acres with over 2,800 parking spaces. According to the owners, Dublin Village Center has 7 parking spaces per 1,000 square feet of development. Initially developed as a community shopping center, Dublin Village Center has been challenged by its poor visibility and access to Sawmill Road. As such, the Dublin Village Center has evolved from a retail center into a center for entertainment and community activities. Dublin Village Center contains an 18-screen AMC theater, a public library, sports and recreation venues as well as showroom retail. The AMC theater is said to outperform the theaters in Polaris and Easton.

When comparing 2017 City retail spending potential (excluding vehicle and gas spending) to actual City sales, there is retail sales “leakage”. This means that City residents are spending a portion of their retail - 24 -

dollars outside of the City limits. Sales leakage is most pronounced in general merchandise, building materials and clothing and accessories stores.

Observation: Whereas the City of Dublin Experiences Retail Spending Leakage, Eating and Drinking Sales Equate to the Market’s Spending Potential. Thirty Percent of the City’s Eat and Drinking Sales Occurred in the Bridge Street District in 2017.

In the City, eating and drinking spending potential was essentially the same as eating and drinking sales in 2017. In 2017, Bridge Street District accounted for 31% of the City’s eating and drinking sales. With Bridge Park, the District’s share of eat/drink sales will increase.

With over 55,000 non-resident workers in Dublin each day and over 2,800 hotel rooms it is surprising that Dublin’s eat/drink sales do not exceed residents’ spending potential. In 2017, Dublin was not functioning as an eat/drink destination despite the community’s strong eating and drinking spending potential (see the following Observation).

- 25 -

Observation: Dublin has Very Strong Demographics as Compared to Its Two Primary Suburban Competitors: Polaris and Easton. Even with This Market Advantage, Dublin’s Retail and Eat/Drink Sales Trail These Competitors’.

Figure 14

Easton and Polaris are major suburban shopping nodes within a relatively easy drive from Dublin. The map above illustrates the primary trade area for Dublin, Polaris, and Easton. The primary trade area is assumed to be the 10-minute drive shed. Over 70% of the sales at these centers is assumed to come from this geographic area.

Source: ESRI; W-ZHA

Dublin’s primary trade area is stronger demographically than both Polaris and Easton. Dublin’s primary market is larger in terms of residents and households and higher income. The retail and eat/drink spending potential per capita is higher in Dublin’s trade area as compared to Polaris and Easton.

Table 11

Source: ESRI; W-ZHA

Table 11 takes the retail and eating and drinking sales generated at Polaris, the Easton Town Center and the Bridge Street District in 2017. These sales are divided by the population residing within a 10-minute drive of the center.

Despite Dublin’s strong trade area demographics, Dublin has not evolved into a regional retail center. With their respective super-regional retail centers, both Polaris and Easton generate far higher retail sales per capita than Dublin. Polaris and Easton are shopping centers and, as such, have a critical mass of regional shopping stores and that allows these centers to draw customers from a large trade area to shop. Dublin does not have this critical mass of shopper’s goods stores. - 27 -

The critical mass of shopper’s goods stores helps to support eating and drinking establishments in Polaris and Easton. The restaurants in Polaris and Easton target the shopper. While office workers patronize these restaurants, there is not a significant amount of office integrated into the walkable environment at either Polaris or Easton.

Before Bridge Park there was not a critical mass of eating and drinking in Dublin. As a result, in 2017 retail and eat/drink spending in the Bridge Street District, was considerably lower per capita than in Polaris and Easton. It is likely that 2018 eat/drink sales will be higher in Dublin as a result of Bridge Park. Unlike Polaris and Easton, however, Dublin’s eat/drink sales will be largely driven by office workers, visitors and residents, not shoppers.

Observation: Dublin’s Market has Characteristics That are Different From the Polaris and Easton Markets as well as the Urban Districts like Short North and Grandview Yard.

The graphic above depicts the prominent household types for markets within a 10-minute drive of competitive shopping and eat/drink locations. As is illustrated, Dublin’s market has the highest share of high-income households within a 10-minute drive. Approximately, one-third of the households within a 10-minute drive of Dublin are high-income singles and couples. Polaris’ market is dominated by high - 28 -

income families, while Easton’s market is mostly moderate income singles and couples. Grandview Yard and Short North have a younger market.

Dublin’s market has very high spending potential indices for apparel and services, entertainment and recreation, food at home and away from home and personal care products. Restaurants and store-types that target the high-income discretionary shopper would find Dublin an attractive location.

Observation: Bridge Park has Proven to be a Successful Eat/Drink and Entertainment Investment Location and There is Considerably More Potential Available in the Market.

Bridge Park contains a number of bars and restaurants including CapCity Diner, PiNS Mechanical Company, Fukuryu, RAM, Local Cantina, Fado, ZCucina, 16-Bit Bar + Arcade, Hen Quarter, The Avenue and the AC Hotel’s VASO rooftop bar. As part of the market analysis process, owners and managers of a number of these eat and drinking establishments were interviewed. The restaurants’ performance has exceeded expectations and they are busy every day.

Key factors to their success include free and accessible parking, the walkable urban environment, office and residential space within walking distance, and Dublin’s demographics. The need for more residential was noted. There was confidence that there was considerably more capacity within the market to support additional eating and drinking establishments on both sides of the River.

Source: ESRI; W-ZHA

Data confirms that Dublin market has capacity for additional eating and drinking sales. Successful Downtowns can capture 20+% of the eat/drink sales potential within their primary trade area. For the eat/drink market, a 15-minute drive time area is the Primary Market.

Dublin’s Bridge Street District currently captures only 8% of the eat/drink sales potential in the 15- minute drive time shed. This compares to Polaris at 30% and Easton at 20% capture within the 15- minute drive time shed. In terms of actual eat/drink sales within a 15-minute drive, Easton and Polaris capture significantly more than Dublin.

Easton and Polaris are super-regional shopping centers with the depth and breadth of shopping and eat/drink that draw patrons to their centers. The drawing power supports the eating and drinking establishments. While Dublin does not have this drawing power, Dublin’s market profile of older, affluent households with high eat/drink spending potential makes it a potentially lucrative eat/drink destination.

Observation: Retail Development and the Retail Shopping Experience Are Changing. These Changes Impact the Type and Magnitude of Retail Store Potential.

The Urban Land Institute and others have documented how changing demographics, lifestyles, and e- commerce are altering the retail landscape in communities. These changes make it necessary for communities to re-evaluate their competitive position in the retail market. Changing retail market dynamics suggest that different retail strategies be considered.

Retail is impacted by demographics. Now the largest cohort, the Millennials (people born between 1982 and 2000) are moving into their prime earning years. Research indicates that Millennials shop on-line, look for bargains, and value the shopping “experience”. The 2nd largest consumer cohort in the country, the “Baby Boomers” (people born between 1946 and 1964), are in de-acquisition mode and are - 31 -

increasingly seeking services. The country is becoming increasingly diverse racially and ethnically giving rise to specialty stores targeting very specific markets.

Online shopping is growing and, as a result, most retailers have moved to omnichannel retailing where there is seamless integration between shopping at the store and/or on-line. The rise in on-line retailing has not eliminated the need for a store, but it has changed its role. Where the store used to be a platform for sales (for example, finding the product, making a selection, and purchasing), stores are now one stop along the path to a purchase. As such, stores are moving toward more customized experiential stores, operating as hubs of omnichannel fulfillment. With less on-site inventory, stores are generally becoming smaller and more efficient.

Shoppers increasingly like to buy a gift, get a haircut, and meet friends in a single outing (“trip-chain”). Store location and its surrounding environment are increasingly important to the shopping experience.

Finally, services as a share of total personal consumption has been on the rise, far surpassing expenditures on goods. More and more, street level space is occupied by restaurants, wellness (Yoga studios), health and other service establishments.

As retailers respond to shifting trends by increasing their online presence and reducing their physical footprint, it is becoming harder for sub-optimal sites to compete. For day-to-day goods, locations that are highly visible and easily accessible to the community will continue to thrive. For specialty goods to succeed, there needs to be the right balance between complementary retail, entertainment and lifestyle uses with nearby traffic generators like residential, hotel and office uses.

BRIDGE STREET DISTRICT RETAIL AND EAT/DRINK PROSPECTS

According to interviews, market demographics and Bridge Street’s current market capture, there is potential for additional eating and drinking in the Bridge Street District. Most of this potential will likely be realized in and near Bridge Park and Downtown Dublin because these areas all already destinations and there is residential and office density within walking distance nearby. More residential and office development will only help to support Bridge Park and Downtown offerings.

At a 15% capture rate by 2023 Dublin can support approximately 100,000 square feet of additional eating and drinking space in the Bridge Street District. Note that some of this space has been built as part of Bridge Park because existing eat/drink sales data are from 2017 when many restaurants in Bridge Park were not open. With a critical mass of eating and drinking and entertainment establishments, the Bridge Street District’s drawing power should increase. By 2028, the Bridge Street District has the potential to capture 20% of market area eat/drink spending potential as many successful downtowns are able to do. It is important to note that additional office and residential development in the District is necessary to support additional eating and drinking sales.

Retail development potential is contingent upon the development project, itself. Given the state of the retail industry, it unlikely that a standalone retail center will be feasible in the Bridge Street District over the next 10 years. More likely existing retail centers like the Shoppes at River’s Edge will be re- positioned to target the markets attracted to Bridge Park and Downtown Dublin. Specialty retailers appealing to the high-end market make sense at this location.

Bridge Park was not conceived of as a retail-based mixed-use project. Bridge Park is an urban district that functions as a business and entertainment center as well as an urban neighborhood. To optimize its market position, the key to its success is not retail per se, but land uses that contribute to the urban “vibe”. To market urban, Bridge Park must be urban. The pedestrian bridge linking with Downtown Dublin will help in this regard.

The retail in Bridge Park will be in service to the project’s positioning. The North Market or Food Hall concept is a good example. Office employees are given more affordable food choices and residents benefit from the amenity. North Market is a visitor destination as well. Other types of retail and - 33 -

services that may support the project’s positioning include health services (dentists, doctors, optometrists), a drug store, pop-up retail, micro stores (500 square feet or less), and high-end regional retailers with markets already established that want a Dublin address.

Given retail industry trends, it is unlikely that Dublin Village Center (DVC) in its current configuration will reinvent itself as a retail center. DVC is designed for the automobile with buildings designed for relatively large tenants. Today, the center is well-occupied with mostly community-oriented recreation, entertainment, and civic tenants. According to the owner, rents are sufficient to generate a reasonable investment return on the project.

Nevertheless, because of its site size, DVC is one location in the Bridge Street District that could be redeveloped as a retail-based, mixed-use town center. Land assembly at the western end of the Bridge Street District (at or near OCLC) is another possible location. A retail-based, mixed use town center typically includes two or three retail anchors, in-line stores and restaurants, upper level residential and office uses. While there is market to support such a center, to implement such a project would require commitments from two or three retail anchors. The retail and restaurant component of a retail-based, mixed-use town center is typically at least 400,000 square feet.

Without a major retail-based, mixed-use project, retail development prospects in the Bridge Street District are relatively modest. In addition to the Food Hall concept, small specialty retail store infill will likely occur in Bridge Park and Downtown Dublin.

THE HOTEL MARKET

EXISTING CONDITIONS AND TRENDS

Observation: There are 22 Hotels and 2,825 Rooms in the Dublin Market. Four Hotels Have Been Developed in the Dublin Market Since 2015, Increasing the Dublin Market’s Room Supply by 19%.

The Dublin market contains a mix of hotel product-types. Over one-third of the rooms available in the Dublin market are suite products. The Embassy Suites, the Marriott and Crowne Plaza are Dublin’s three full-service hotels with meeting space. Just over one-quarter of Dublin’s hotel room stock is in limited and/or select service hotels like the Courtyard and Hyatt Place.

An interview with a representative from the Convention & Visitors Bureau revealed that Dublin’s hotel supply had remained steady until recently. Since 2015, there have been 4 hotels built and 459 rooms added to the Dublin market. The new hotels are the Residence Inn, the Fairfield Inn and Suites, AC Hotels by Marriott, and the Home2 Suites. These new hotels increased the Dublin market’s hotel room supply by 19%.

With the exception of the AC Hotel at Bridge Park, all of the new hotels are suite products. Suite rooms account for two-thirds of the new rooms added to the Dublin market. Suite hotels are attractive in locations with corporate headquarters and/or family attractions.

Observation: The Dublin Hotel Market is Healthy. Revenue per Available Room Trends Indicate that New Hotel Product has Not Cannibalized the Market, but Grown the Hotel Economy.

In 2017, the Dublin hotel market occupancy averaged over 70% with an average daily rate of $105.76 per room. These are strong indicators and 2018 to-date data indicate that the market is performing even better than 2017. As a reference, the overall Columbus market had an occupancy rate of 65.8% and an average daily rate of $103.76 in 2017.

Hotel room revenue in the Dublin market went from $53.8 million in 2012 to $71.5 million in 2017 – an increase of 33%.

Dublin’s revenue per available room (RevPAR) increased at an average rate of 3.5% per annum between 2012 and 2017. The Dublin hotel market continued to grow RevPAR from 2015 to 2016 despite the introduction of the Fairfield Inn and Suites and the Residence Inn to the market in 2015. Dublin’s revenue per available room did decline slightly from 2016 to 2017 with the introduction of the AC Hotel and Home2 Suites.

Revenue Per Available Room by Hotel Type Dublin Market 2012 - 2017

The full-service, limited/select service hotels only saw a slight decrease in revenue per available room when the AC Hotel entered the market in 2017. The revenues per available room among suite hotels continued to increase even with the addition of Residence Inn and Fairfield Inn and Suites (183 rooms) in 2015. There was only a slight decrease in RevPAR when Home2 entered the market in 2017. All-in- all, the Dublin market has continued to exhibit market strength even with the addition of new hotels.

At $74.26, Dublin’s revenue per available room was 9% higher than the Columbus average ($68.24) in 2017. Overall the Columbus market’s RevPAR increased at an average annual rate of 5.1% between 2012 and 2017 – faster than Dublin’s average annual growth rate of 3.5%.

The overall Columbus market achieved faster RevPAR growth by growing average daily rates faster than Dublin. One reason the overall Columbus market was able to grow rates faster was because the Columbus market did not increase its overall room supply to the same degree as Dublin. Where Dublin increased room nights by 11.9%, the Columbus market increased by 7.7%.8 Another reason is that Dublin is challenged with room rate appreciation because so much of their business is driven by large corporations which have contract prices on the rooms.

Over the last 5 years, Dublin’s hotel room revenue has continued to represent 10% of the overall Columbus market’s hotel room revenue.

Observation: The Dublin Market Continues to be Weak in the Winter Months. Most of the Hotel Revenue Growth Has Occurred in the Peak Months.

The graph above depicts hotel revenue by month in the Dublin market for select years. As the graph illustrates, Dublin’s hotel market continues to be weakest in November, December, January and February. Much of this decline occurs during winter weekends when there is a drop-off in the leisure and meeting market segments. The new hotels have not impacted the cyclical nature of the market; growth in hotel revenue has mostly occurred from March through October.

A number of interviewees mentioned the need to develop an attraction that draws visitors in the winter months. The idea of an athletic facility with basketball games or other winter spectator events was seen as an opportunity to increase visitation during the hotels’ weak season.

From Monday through Thursday Dublin market hotels are well-occupied by business visitors. Many Dublin hotels have negotiated hotel room price contracts with the larger corporations like Cardinal Health, Toyota and Wendy’s. These contracts support hotel occupancy, but limit room rates in Dublin.

Interviews suggest that the Dublin hotel visitor profile is during the week 90% business and 10% group. During the weekend, hotels are occupied by leisure visitors and weddings and sports groups. Group business during the week is a small segment in Dublin due to the limited amount of meeting space available and the market’s older full-service hotel stock.

Annual RevPAR data by day of week illustrates that Dublin hotels do well on Friday and Saturday nights when the leisure market is occupying rooms. As will be discussed forthwith, Bridge Park has contributed to Dublin’s competitive position for all market segments.

- 41 -

Observation: Bridge Park is Changing the Dublin Hotel Market and its Prospects.

Bridge Park is improving all segments of the hotel business. It used to be that Dublin would lose the business visitor to Downtown Columbus if the business visitor was seeking a mixed-use, dynamic environment within walking distance or in proximity to their hotel. Bridge Park has allowed Dublin to offer such an environment to the business traveler.

With a RevPAR well above the Dublin market average, interviews with the AC Hotel’s management reveal that the hotel is outperforming its projections. Marriott uses Dublin’s AC Hotel as its “brand model” for the AC Hotel product line. Visitor demand to visit Bridge Park is so acute that some hotels are offering patrons a shuttle voucher for transportation to and from Bridge Park.

For those business travelers conducting business in the northern suburban areas of Columbus that want an urban center with a range of eating and drinking, recreation and entertainment options, Dublin now competes with Columbus for these overnight stays. Dublin is more competitive within the suburban market because it can offer this amenity.

Like the business market, the additional offerings provided at Bridge Park are attractive to the leisure and group markets. These visitors like to explore and have things to do. In the Dublin market, revenues per available room on Friday and Saturday night have increased since three years ago.

While not necessarily in Bridge Park, Dublin hotels market Bridge Park as an attraction to prospective groups like weddings. Bridge Park offers a variety of eat/drink, recreation and entertainment venues in an attractive, safe and walkable environment. There is real economic synergy occurring between Bridge Park and hotels in the Dublin market.

A number of interviewees mentioned that the pedestrian bridge linking Downtown Dublin to Bridge Park will further enhance the Bridge Street District’s function as an attraction for Dublin. The Bridge and the Scioto River’s potential to become a recreational asset has the potential to change Dublin’s competitive position in the hotel marketplace. With eco-tourism activities on the river and other programming, Dublin could become a destination for the excursion market. Many posited that there is the potential to grow the leisure- and group business-side of the overnight stay market.

Observation: One Observation Made Often by Local Businesses, the Convention & Visitor’s Bureau and Hotel Managers was the Need for More Meeting Space in Dublin.

Dublin is second only to Downtown Columbus in terms of total office space, yet Dublin cannot accommodate a meeting of over 250 people. According to the Convention & Business Bureau, the biggest hotel space available in Dublin is 14,000 square feet at the Embassy Suites. Cardinal Health, Wendy’s and other businesses interviewed mentioned available meeting space as an issue in Dublin. Currently, local businesses use the Exchange, Brick House Blue, OCLC, and local hotel meeting space. If the meeting is too large local businesses typically host the meeting in Columbus. - 42 -

Bridge Park is improving meeting prospects because, together with Downtown Dublin, there is depth and breadth of restaurant and entertainment options in a compact and walkable setting. Businesses are looking for places to host 300 to 350 person meetings in Dublin. While the suite products have expanded the Dublin hotel market, they are not increasing Dublin’s capacity to host larger meetings. A full-service hotel with meeting facilities capable of accommodating a 300- to 350-person meeting is something the Convention & Visitor’s Bureau and the larger businesses would like to see in Dublin.

HOTEL POTENTIAL

The Dublin hotel market has proven to be deep with occupancy and average daily rates growing as the hotel room supply has expanded. With additional office, residential and eat/drink/retail/entertainment development, the Bridge Street District will continue to be an attractive hotel investment location. This growth coupled with Dublin’s potential to become a visitor destination as the pedestrian bridge and park are completed will enhance Dublin’s competitiveness in the hotel market.

Jobs are the primary driver of the Columbus and Dublin hotel markets. According to job projections from Moody’s Analytics, Franklin County is projected to have 854,563 jobs by 2023 and 900,037 jobs by 2028. Using hotel revenues per job in 2017 as a proxy, job growth in Franklin County will generate $769.8 million in hotel revenue by 2028.

Over each of the last 5 years, Dublin has accounted for 10% of the Columbus hotel market’s hotel room revenue. This capture rate was achieved in Dublin mostly without the Bridge Park urban district – it was under-construction. With Bridge Park, Dublin’s competitive hotel position is enhanced which should - 43 -

increase Dublin’s hotel revenue capture rate. The projection assumes a 12.5% capture rate between 2018 and 2023 and a 13% capture rate between 2023 and 2028.

At these capture rates and Dublin’s current revenue per available room ($74.26), the $91.4 million (approximately) in hotel sales by 2023 will support 3,371 hotel rooms in Dublin. In 5 years there will be demand for an additional 546 rooms in the Dublin market. By 2028, the demand is projected to increase to 867 additional hotel rooms. It is important to note, that these projections do not include hotel rooms associated with a conference/convention facility and/or an attraction. Hotels associated with such anchors are largely dependent in the anchor’s development program, not regional employment trends.

There is an additional hotel already programmed in Bridge Park, a Springhill Suites with approximately 145 rooms. According to the City, a 105-room TownePlace Suites has been approved at 5155 Upper Metro Place. Another hotel has begun the building permit process on Frantz Road (room count unknown). Dublin is proving to be an attractive hotel investment location.
