I can imagine that ground or second floor commercial can be a tough sell (didn't one of the Sage buildings reduce the planned commercial on one of its buildings?) There are always people who need to live some where, but not always the same for commercial. Witness the Uptown Waterloo changeover from retail to food/bars. On the other hand, I could see a market for small start-up office commercial for groups that graduate from an incubator but who aren't yet ready for a huge space.
