  • Resilient Forms of Shopping Centers Amid the Rise of Online Retailing: Towards the Urban Experience
    sustainability Article Resilient Forms of Shopping Centers Amid the Rise of Online Retailing: Towards the Urban Experience Fujie Rao Melbourne School of Design, University of Melbourne, Melbourne 3010, Australia; [email protected] Received: 13 June 2019; Accepted: 17 July 2019; Published: 24 July 2019 Abstract: The rapid expansion of online retailing has long raised the concern that shops and shopping centers (evolved or planned agglomerations of shops) may be abandoned and thus lead to a depletion of urbanity. Contesting this scenario, I employ the concept of ‘retail resilience’ to explore the ways in which different material forms of shopping may persist as online retailing proliferates. Through interviews with planning and development professionals in Edmonton (Canada), Melbourne (Australia), Portland (Oregon), and Wuhan (China); field/virtual observations in a wider range of cities; and a morphological analysis of key shopping centers, I find that brick-and-mortar retail space is not going away; rather, it is being increasingly developed into various shopping spaces geared toward the urban experience (a combination of density, mixed uses, and walkability) and may thus be adapted to online retailing. While not all emerging forms of shopping may persist, these diverse changes, experiments, and adaptations of shops and shopping centers can be considered a form of resilience. However, many emerging shopping centers pose a threat to urban public life. Keywords: retail resilience; online retailing; shopping center; urban experience; urbanity 1. Introduction Shopping has been at the heart of urbanity since the earliest cities developed as sites of exchange. One sees and touches the product, perhaps smells and tastes it, bargains with the trader and experiences the larger social, political and cultural life that comes with traditional marketplaces.

  • Shopping Center Classifications: Challenges and Opportunities James R
    Shopping Center Classifications © J.R. DeLisle, Ph.D. Shopping Center Classifications: Challenges and Opportunities James R. DeLisle, Ph.D. First Draft, September 2005 White Paper, June 2007 Introduction Background Over the years, shopping center formats have taken on a confusing array of identities, with names that include such descriptors as Centers, Commons, Crossings, Hybrids, Lifestyle Centers, Malls, Markets, Marts, Mega-Malls, Mixed-Use, Outlets, Parkways, Places, Plazas, Promenades, Shops, Strips, Squares, Super Centers, Town Centers, Urban Retail, Vertical, and Villages. Unfortunately, there is no agreement as to how many distinct types of shopping center formats there really are, or how individual centers should be assigned to the various categories. Adding to this confusion is that shopping centers can be further differentiated by a variety of marketing and management strategies including: Convenience, Entertainment, Ethnicity, Festival, Lifestyle, Luxury, Off-Price, Theme (e.g., home improvement and furniture), Tourist, Urban, and Value. When considering the possible combinations of these types of differentiating factors, it is understandable that some consider the retail sector inherently complex and difficult to understand. To address this situation and help provide some insight into the major components of the retail market, the ICSC has developed a classification of shopping center formats. This typology has undergone a number of modifications over the years, as new formats have emerged and variations of existing formats have become more significant. The ICSC has also responded to calls for more precision from industry participants and capital providers who are seeking a better understanding of the structure of the market. The nature and scope of retail continues to morph over time, especially as the lines have begun to blur among categories and as retail has become more intertwined with other property types (e.g., Mixed-Use and Town Center).

  • The Changing Design of Shopping Places
    The Changing Design of Shopping Places From the palatial department SHOPPING IS an interaction between a marketing strategy and the store to the no-frills power design of the shopping place. The envi- ronment is an integral part of the retail center, design plays a key role equation, as important as the way that goods are marketed. Sometimes changes in retailing environments. in shopping are driven by environmental innovations, sometimes by innovations in strategy, and sometimes innovations occur in both realms at once. The only constant is change, for retailing, more than other sector of commercial real estate, is particu- larly susceptible to fashion. Whatever attracts consumers one year may repel them the next.

  • Retail Market Analysis Focuses on Two Primary Trade Larger Trade Area Than One with Significant Regional Areas (Pmas): Competition
    MONTGOMERY PLANNING market STUDIES aspen hill minor master plan amendment May 2015 ASPEN HILL MINOR MASTER PLAN AMENDMENT Retail Feasibility Study RESEARCH & SPECIAL PROJECTS DIVISION Montgomery County Planning Department April 15, 2014 INTRODUCTION This report was prepared in support of the Aspen Hill Minor Master Plan Amendment and assesses the market potential for retail uses within the Minor Amendment area. It is aimed at addressing two key concerns: • Determining the amount of unmet retail demand within the Aspen Hill Trade Area and, consequently, the type of retail space that could be supported. • Evaluating the impact to existing retailers from new retail development on the BAE/ Vitro site that could potentially undermine existing businesses and create vacancies in nearby shopping centers. METHODOLOGY AND ASSUMPTIONS This analysis seeks to determine the economic feasibility of retail development in the Minor Amendment area by assessing the overall retail market in Aspen Hill. In order to quantify the amount of new retail space that could be supported, annual retail expenditures by residents (demand) were compared to estimated retail sales from businesses (supply). Uncaptured sales represent the retail gap or “leakage” that could be used to support additional retail development. The study evaluated retail market potential among all retail categories and, in accordance with surrounding land uses, identified the potential type of retail and its format, which could be supported by the findings. The Minor Master Plan Application (MMPA) submitted by the BAE/Vitro property owner in 2012 that triggered this larger planning effort states that a prospective tenant is interested in building a 118,000 square foot (SF) big-box department store on the BAE/Vitro site; with a roughly equivalent mix between general merchandise and groceries.

  • A Review of Design Approaches of Tall Buildings
    buildings Review Sustainability and the 21st Century Vertical City: A Review of Design Approaches of Tall Buildings Kheir Al-Kodmany Department of Urban Planning and Policy, College of Urban Planning and Public Affairs, University of Illinois at Chicago, Chicago, IL 60607, USA; [email protected] Received: 19 June 2018; Accepted: 31 July 2018; Published: 3 August 2018 Abstract: As cities cope with rapid population growth—adding 2.5 billion dwellers by 2050—and grapple with destructive sprawl, politicians, planners, and architects have become increasingly interested in the vertical city paradigm. Given the large-scale problems of skyscrapers, any improvements in their planning, design, and construction would be significant. This paper examines a new crop of skyscrapers that employs green design elements, including aerodynamic forms, greeneries, energy-saving systems, innovative renewable energy techniques, water-saving technologies, rainwater catchment systems, and the like. The examined projects illustrate foremost sustainable design features, strategies, and techniques that help to meet the functional requirements while resulting in attractive forms. They include towers that are completed, under-construction, on-hold, proposed and on the drawing boards. In an attempt to capture a wide-range of innovative ideas and concepts, this paper examines 30 major projects representing major world’s regions that have been active in constructing tall buildings including Southeast Asia and the Far East, the Middle East, Europe, and North America. The discussion section also engages the reader with additional buildings that have employed similar sustainable design. The paper concludes by identifying design approaches that could twin sustainability with iconicity, and highlights some of the shortfalls of intended sustainable design.
