Reply to comment by BurghPuppies in Article about the terminal building development. Thoughts? by _koopatroopa_

Those are malls in random suburbs. The Strip has been a destination for how long? They have built countless luxury apartments in the neighborhood over the last decade. I highly doubt this is going to turn into the Pittsburgh Mills anytime soon.

I didn’t say it was going to, I said there’s a reason rents are high and showed an example of what happens when landlords get desperate for tenants and lower both rent & standards. And I commented further up in the thread about the new housing and demographic, and how that’s the reason for the high rent.

And while the Strip is a destination, there’s really only one street that’s even close to a retail destination. Two different things.
