What’s Fueling the Trend Toward Transit-Oriented Retail Locations

What’s Fueling the Trend Toward Transit-Oriented Retail Locations: As the landscape seems to shift beneath the feet of retail, developers are finding innovative ways to bring consumers and retail together. An idea that is gathering momentum in many cities is what’s known as Transit-Oriented Development. In order to put retail where the customers are, developers are targeting travel hubs, like airports or railway terminals. These locations can support retail as well as restaurants, boutiques, and professional services. In effect, many transit stations are being transformed into destinations, where people can shop, dine, socialize, and take care of business.
