  • You should keep in mind that different areas gradually build a reputation as hotspots or desirable corridors for shopping, eating, or other entertainment and consumer activities. So, while renting retail space in an area with a well-established high-end reputation might mean more customers that are more willing to spend, it will also place you in a more competitive environment.

    For car-travelling customers, 2650 University Avenue has a parking ratio of 6.33 / 1,000 SF, offering 44 parking spaces.

For instance, properties that were renovated or rehabilitated more recently bring greater value to tenants.
