interested in seeing how this comes together. feels like the kind of thing where open air would be nice, at least as an option. i know the axe place has those windows they pull open when it's nice out. anyway, hope they can execute this without it feeling like some mall of the great plains afterthought.

And in the Power & Light District, the majority of businesses have seen higher revenue in the past four to six months compared with the same period in 2019, district President John Moncke said, teasing a "flurry" of additional tenants to come during the winter.

That's impressive if higher than 2019 if events and daytime workforce not up to 2019 level yet. Really the case?

that is pretty shocking if true. I don't think he's lying but it just seems a fair amount of P&L is convention traffic but has been barely started back up

^Yeah, a bit suspect but great if true and 'flurry' of new tenants coming.

It's true, the general manager of the live block recently mentioned they were up 6% over 2019. He said they're up on profit as well because some venues no longer open on days where they used to be slow. I don't suspect that trend and the current hours will stay the same.

While I do think 2023 will be the first back to normal year for conventions, I'm convinced 2022 is going to be very busy.

Old saucer space is leased and several other locations are very close to being deals.

Cordish and Target have a unofficial agreement that Target prefers to be in the PNL district if they can agree on location. Won’t be 3L as that ground level space could become a very nice cocktail type venue.

Why does Target want to be in P&L?

Yeah no need for more cocktail lounges, Cordish should be going out of their way to customize 3L ground level or 2 for Target's needs - unless there is an existing space they like.

A custom designed spot would be nice because they could put an in store grange entrance a la cosentinos. Kind of surprised they haven’t agreed on a plan. Four light is a ways away.

What about one of those empty store spots on Main nearby Yard House? Could’ve sworn I’d seen those empty

I mean we've been in discussions with "target" before 2L was even done.

3 Light is already designed/built. Why would they do that? Put it in 4 Light which I hear is coming very soon.

^True dat, meant with reconfiguring interior finish but maybe still too limiting. The NW corner of 14th/Main might work too, though could be torn down and rebuilt.

If a CVS pharmacy will be in a P&L Target store, wouldn't be surprising if they close the other downtown CVS location.
