This is a super challenging location, any retail would almost certainly be a failure. Food/drink on the other hand creates a destination, and has good odds of surviving. I couldn't be happier to have another restaurant in DTK.

What makes you think it would be a challenging location? There are loads of existing businesses around there already: lots of clothing stores, pharmacies, an architecture firm, 2 grocery stores and general goods stores (an African and I believe South American one), various offices, a tobacco shop, computer repair, printing, a driving school, 2 record stores and countless more. There are a million restaurants downtown already...it just feels like there should be a greater variety of things opening downtown with all the new people flocking to move and spend time there.
