I kind of like the fact that all these stores are individually owned. We just need more infill projects. honestly i dont know if a brand name client will fit in with this environment.

When the retail space at SB Manhattan opens, it will feature a major brand name client; likely a Starbucks or Coffee Bean and a Chipotle..... the only one in downtown! I've lived in the neighborhood for the last six years.... I moved in in 2002 when it was a dump and Barry Shy has done a great job revitalizing it. Keep up the good work!

These days, not everyone can afford these expensive lofts. Normal people/students/local employees who cannot afford paying around 2 grand a month, apply for affordable housing. People stereotype when they think of the word, "affordable housing." Many years ago it was known for people who are looking to be lazy and take advantage of the system, but today it seems to be very different. Just this past month i've met over 5 normal people in the neigborhood, that are either students, artists, or just work downtwn that either live in the Hayward, Alexandria, or Rosslyn. I think studio apts throughout these buildings range from $500-$1000 a month or so. It seems like today’s “affordable housing” is a little different thanwhat is was 10-15 years ago.

The Douglas building retail is almost complete. Along the way on Spring and Main you have a all the SB buildings, the Rowan, and to cap everything we also have the Great Republic Lofts, City National Lofts, the Chapman, and the Bartlett? to the south. All these residents will need retail and for this density the percentage of businesses profiting will be high. My biggest question will be what will happen to all the low income affordable housing? Will those units go to students like the Cecil is doing? I think the domino effect has started already. The Douglas building retail is almost complete.

I'm really excited to see how this new clothing store/art gallery at the ground floor of the hayward will come out. Hopefully this will nice and create a little domino effect on this for more good retail. I havent heard anything about the sb buildings.

Building management hadn't heard of any Indian restaurant when I called for information. I’ve got some inquiries out with a few people trying to get that info.
