>From an article about the "Domus" student housing complex in today's DP: Pesacov would not confirm the specific companies that will fill the remaining 20,000 square feet of retail space because leases had not been finalized, though sources say that a Starbucks Coffee is expected to be one of the complex's other stores.
Pesacov added that no local retailers will fill the space, which is being rented at the more expensive rate of $100 per square foot. Normally, University City retail space is rented at $55 per square foot, Pesacov said. "All of our retail [stores] are upscale," she said. "Every tenant is well-known and has locations throughout the country." Yeah -- none of that crummy local stuff for this building. They're thinking "upscale" tenants that are "well-known" with "locations throughout the country." Read: franchises and chains.
