International Council of Shopping Centers’ 2018 Annual Convention

As the largest retail real estate event on the east coast, ICSC New York Deal Making had nearly 10,000 retail professionals from all corners of the US and even some from across the pond, flocking to the Big Apple for the week of December 3rd. This year’s keynote address featured Doug Stephens, founder of Retail Prophet and 20-year veteran of the retail industry.

Also new to their program was “Retail in Focus,” featuring many emerging brands that started out as digitally-native and are now in the various stages of opening strategic physical locations in line with the brands they’ve cultivated on the internet, and where their audience is located.

Our Fernando Toro had the opportunity to sit down and discuss the state of retail in Puerto Rico. Please, see video.

Cool Streets Cincinnati – Craft Brews Edition

CRAFT BREW: THE RISE OF THE LITTLE GUYS

Craft brewing is not new. Locally or regionally produced beers with a limited distribution have had a following for quite a while. But over the last decade craft brews have experienced a meteoric increase in popularity. According to the Brewers Association, the number of craft breweries in the U.S. has more than tripled over the last 10 years. This explosion of growth has manifested itself in many forms and formats—from small, artisanal beer-tasting rooms to fully functioning large-scale industrial brewing facilities.

Something Nice Is Coming!

 

Joining Cushman & Wakefield in the Cool Streets movement is this recent lease: a pastry/coffee shop concept mixed with a clothing boutique.

The Cool Streets movement seeks to connect with the rising millennial consumer population that’s being driven by dramatic demographic shifts and the preference for urban living. This pastry/clothing shop saw itself in the property that’s so aptly located in one of Puerto Rico’s hottest, unconventional, rising urban retail markets.

Calle Loíza stretches between the tourist hubs of Condado and Isla Verde. The neighborhood has seen an important number of new developments that have injected back vibrancy into this well-known sector of San Juan.

Fairy Cakes is expected to commence operating between April-May.

“It’s not happening on the High Streets

or on the Main Streets, it’s happening

on what we call the Cool Streets.”

 

 

Sold! Extremely Centric Office Building
