This post is the third of nine chapters where we dive into our approach to creating Good Public Space and explain the elements of our model. Today it’s time for eating and drinking. Let’s take Plein 1940 in Rotterdam, for example. This square, located behind the Maritiem Museum, offers a great view over Leuvehaven but lacks vibrancy. What if it could also feature a small cafe for having a coffee and a cinnamon roll?

Just published an article in the Daily Journal about the rapid rise and fall (and possible rebirth?) of Ghost Kitchens & off-premise dining (see link below). I spent a disproportionate amount of my time during the early pandemic negotiating and drafting various agreements both against and on behalf of various off-premise dining businesses (e.g., ghost kitchens).  Leases of industrial, office, retail, and mixed use locations across the country, as well as food hall management agreements, license agreements, and other brand and vendor deals.  It was exciting to watch the model grow the way it did.  But those in the industry also watched the concept limp its way into 2024.  My Daily Journal article talks about the four main reasons that the concept hit speedbumps as well as what I think we should look out for if we’re looking for a renaissance. #retail #logistics #commercialrealestate #retailrealestate #foodservice #foodinnovation #proptech #foodtech #industrialrealestate #lastmile #SecondActing #deliveryeconomy
