Store Location in Shopping Centers:

15 Years After

Slide2

Frank Lloyd Wright: The Elevator & the Automobile at the Turn of the Century

With the advent of the elevator, downtown shopping districts with its department stores dominated the retail shopping experience near the end of the nineteenth century.

Electric streetcar lines then connected the downtown retail district with residential areas like the spokes of a wheel.

: Marshall Field’s;

Detroit

: Hudson’s;

New York

: Macy’s;

Minneapolis

: Dayton’s;

: Meier & Frank

Frank Lloyd Wright

(1867-1959) knew what to expect when he said:

“The city of the future will depend on the race between the car and the elevator, and anyone who bets of the elevator is crazy.”

Slide3

Slide4

Rise of the Shopping CenterAutomobile use expanded during the 1920’s and 1930’s & residential uses expanded rapidly into the suburbs.

Levitt-towns first started on Long Island, NY after World War II & these became the model of residential uses.

Suburban subdivisions consisting of single-story, detached houses on single lots became the norm spreading out from metropolitan areas throughout the U.S.

Two- or three-story row houses along boulevards near the downtown were no longer the custom.

Shopping centers came to revolutionize retail shopping during the latter half of the 20

th

century.

Slide5

Slide6

Slide7

Slide8

Fall of the Downtown Retail DistrictDowntown retail districts of the 1950’s were eventually drained of retail uses as suburban shopping centers took over the retail trade.

Early suburban centers were built by department stores, i.e., Hudson Co. built Northland Center in Detroit (1954) & Dayton Co. built

Southdale

Center in Minneapolis (1956).

Office uses came to dominate the downtown after the 1960’s

Suburban residences met the demand for more living space after the time to cover distances (using cars) shortened.

Slide9

Slide10

Growth of Shopping CentersFrom 1950 to 1955 the graph shows a slow increase in the number of centers; from 1955 to 1980 the rate grows at 6 times as much.

By 1985 about 50% of all retail sales were made at shopping centers, not including automobile sales & gasoline.

The rate of retail sales in shopping centers since 1985 has declined: 1974: 25%, 1985: 50%, 1996: 52%

In 1998 87% of all US shopping centers were less than 200,000 SF. GLA (smaller than regional or super-regional centers).

In the late 1970’s & early 1980’s regional shopping returned

Slide11

Slide12

Slide13

Shopping Centers Slowto the downtown, e.g., Faneuil Hall, Boston,

Harborplace

, Baltimore, & South Street Seaport, New York

By the1990’s shopping center growth had slowed considerably, evidence that the market had become saturated

Big box or “category killer” retailers such as Lowe’s, Home Depot, Costco, Best Buy, & K-Mart became popular during the 1980’s; online retailing has expanded since about 2000

By 2005 construction of new, enclosed shopping centers had just about stopped.

Today shopping centers are very much with us, and, unlike the downtown retail district, are not likely to disappear soon.

Slide14

What Did Shopping Centers have that the Central Business District Didn’t?

Studies of microeconomics of shopping centers started in earnest about 1989 and continues today.

Research eventually showed that the structure of rent, space, leases, and store location under a unified plan & management results in

positive demand externalities

that a CBD cannot reproduce.

What are positive consumer demand externalities? They get customers to spend their money by providing a place & circumstances where consumers want to shop.

Economists call this “internalizing” positive externalities; the ULI calls this process

synergistic

& we can leave it at that.

Slide15

Original Data: 1992-93 Shopping Centers, 8 Regional & Super-Regional

Original data was gathered from 9 regional (300K-900K GLA) and super-regional (500K-1.5M GLA) shopping centers scattered throughout the U.S. (avg. 828.6K GLA)

6 were single-level, 2 double-level, & 1 three-level (3-level mall not used)

anchor stores ranged from 2 to 6 per center (avg. 3.56)

Parking ratios ranged from 5.35 to 5.62 stalls per 1,000 sq ft of shopping area (standard = 5.5 stalls per 1,000 sq ft)

Years completed ranged from 1952 to 1990, the center built in 1952 had been completely renovated in 1987 (avg. 16 yrs.)

Vacancies ranged from 4.4% to 0.4%, avg. 3.1%

Slide16

Original Data: 1992-93 Shopping Centers, 8 Regional & Super-RegionalNumbers of non-anchors (including vacancies) ranged from 117 to 158 (avg. 129)

Of the 1,010 leases 689 were deemed usable (69%)

Leases were unusable:

1) lease either starts or ends in the year sales were reported (insufficient info. on renewed/rolled over tenants)

2) some tenants did not report sales (i.e., service tenants w/out overage rent)

3) cinemas & out-pad tenants (the former often operate on a different schedule & the latter are outside the mall)

Slide17

Slide18

Slide19

Findings in First Study1) Highest customer traffic takes place at the mall’s center (usually at or near the food court), & customer traffic tapers off with distance from the center.

2) Store size increases, & rent per SF decreases, w/distance from the mall’s center (rents per SF

@ +4.0% /100 ft)

3) Stores of the same type that promote comparison shopping (e.g., women’s apparel & men’s apparel) will generally be dispersed as opposed to clustered

4) Rents decline at different rates with distance from the mall center, smaller store types paying higher rents/SF at the center whose rents decline faster than larger store types.

Slide20

Slide21

Slide22

Slide23

Slide24

Conclusion: There is an Optimal Tenant Mix & Optimal Tenant Locations

Stores locate according to what is termed a bid-rent process in microeconomics , so that store types position themselves to receive maximum sales (and pay maximum rents)

Store location & size are two of the mall characteristics that, together, go to maximize rents (lease structure does too)

Assuming leases are properly structured, the retail market is just-saturated, and zero vacancies, store sizes and locations within the mall are the remaining variables to obtain optimal tenant mix.

These variables are best understood as the result of trial & error,

Adam Smith’s “invisible hand.”

Slide25

Slide26

Follow-Up Data: 2006 Shopping Centers, 8 Regional & Super-Regional

Follow-up data was gathered from 8 regional (300K-900K GLA) & super-regional (500K-1.5M GLA) shopping centers located along the U.S. Atlantic Coast (avg. 481.5K GLA)

6 were single level & 2 were double level centers

anchor stores ranged from 2 to 4 per center (avg. 3.25)

Years completed ranged from 1961 to 1992, with 2 centers completely renovated (ones built in 1961 & 1985 in 1993 & 1995, respectively) (avg. 25.6 yrs.)

Leases were unusable:

1) 3 shopping centers had too many vacancies (46%, 30%, & 20%) for results to be creditable (previous research shows this)

Slide27

Follow-up Data: 2006 Shopping Centers, 8 Regional & Super-Regional

2) For 3 centers site plans were not readily available (from which to measure distances from stores)

For the remaining 2, vacancies were 8.6% and 10%, parking ratios were 5.5 & 6 spaces per 1000 GLA, & the number of usable non-anchor stores were 50 (w/33K GLA vacant) and 41 (w/47K GLA vacant)

Of the 91 leases 54 were deemed usable (59%)

How to Get More Observations: Bootstrapping

A bootstrapping technique was used to provide more observations (lease data to use in statistical analysis).

By this nonparametric method samples from the observations at hand are made as if these samples were from a population.

In bootstrapping, sampling with replacement takes place using the data on hand (the 54 store leases) to create a larger number of observations from which to run statistical analysis.

From this method 1,200 non-anchor observations were produced, i.e., 60 random samples of 20 leases from the 54 store leases = 1,200 lease observations

Follow-Up Data

Slide32

Findings in Follow-Up Study

1) Store size increases, & rent per SF decreases, w/distance from the mall’s center (rents @ +5.3% /100 ft, square footage +8.26% / 100 ft)

2) Generally, store types still line up with distance from the mall’s center (higher rents & smaller stores w/distance) the same as they did in the earlier study.

3) Store types have changed significantly from 1992 to 2006, e.g., fewer men’s shoe stores & more electronics stores, which makes testing for location effects of comparison store shopping difficult.

Slide37

Did Rent per Square Feet Keep Up with Inflation?

Definitely not, but it would be premature to say exactly why and how shopping center rents are falling historically.

The only obvious conclusion is that regional & super-regional shopping centers are not doing as well as they had been to

internalize positive demand externalities

compared with other retailing .

Still I don’t think any other form of retailing surpasses the shopping center experience (if only we could impose sales taxes on

online shopping

).

Retailing in urban areas is best done using regional & super-regional models such as

Harborplace

, Baltimore.

Slide38

Future ResearchSimilar research should be done using recent data from like regional & super-regional shopping centers.

The best follow-up data would be for those 8 centers used in the 1

st

study.

The 1992 data was from the best shopping centers then owned by a state pension fund.

Choice of malls in 1992 by regional managers was meant to impress the pension fund managers.

The follow-up data in 2006 was most probably from a cross-section of centers that the owners or lenders thought might be having financial difficulties.
