RETAIL IMPROVEMENT GUIDE This “how-to” improve your business guide offers 4 simple MARKETING methods for retailers to increase their sales. The recommendations in the guide were derived from the results of an earlier consumer survey. We’ve condensed the survey results and made it easy for our retailers to understand. This guide urges readers to know their target market and how listening to what their consumers value can yield approximately $3 billion in sales, which is currently being lost to outside competition. BRANDING GUIDE This document serves as a guide in using the various elements that make up the graphic identity of the Sutphin Blvd. BID and the rules that support them, for their combined, consistent usage across all applications. At its most basic level, the branding guide establishes the logo, typeface and colors of the BID’s brand.

FAÇADE IMPROVEMENT The BID recently commenced a 52 commercial retail façade improvement program. With 52 commercial retail establishments in the district, BID merchants incorrectly equate revenue sales and competition with “maximum signage” and “cluttered advertising” – which can be overwhelming to potential shoppers. Moreover, some storefront signs and awnings are dated and/or need to be repaired. Retailers want to maintain their unique identity and character but the lack of a common theme creates visual confusion. Hence, the district is perceived as chaotic, unsafe and lacking quality goods and services. In late 2013, the BID publicly solicited OUR GOAL… proposals from licensed architects to provide exterior commercial storefront design guidelines and a commercial façade design that will improve the 1.

  • (REDC) Region: New York City Municipality Name
    Basic Information Regional Economic Development Council (REDC) Region: New York City Municipality Name: New York City Downtown Name: Jamaica County: Queens Downtown Description - Provide an overview of the downtown and summarize the rationale behind nominating this downtown for a Downtown Revitalization Initiative (DRI) award): Downtown Jamaica is on the cusp of a renaissance. It is a vibrant mixed-use community with a central core along three Business Improvement Districts. In reviewing the criteria in the Downtown Revitalization Initiative (DRI) Guidelines, we were delighted to observe that Downtown Jamaica satisfies each of the required elements. As the specifics in the application indicate, Downtown Jamaica is experiencing rapid middle-class population growth and is in the midst of a wave of private and public investments in infrastructure, affordable housing, hospitality, retail and industrial jobs. As one of Queens’ four commercial hubs, there are a number of attractive sites with significant development potential in the Downtown. All of the anchor institutions are aligned with an investment commitment to the Downtown, as are the area BID’s and non-profit institutions. Major job-creating projects and initiatives are underway for a wide range of opportunities, all of which are either in the Downtown core or are easily accessible to it. The Downtown is a multi- modal regional transit hub complemented with public parks and gathering spaces, which are centrally located. In addition, investments in the area’s arts and cultural institutions are increasing and the retail mix now includes several healthy and affordable food alternatives. Finally, policies and initiatives are in place to improve quality of life and livability throughout the downtown.
