Publix - East San Marco

[bl8jaxnative]

I do feel bad when people don't realize all the costs involved.

I'm not surprised at the pricing on those homes.  Gotta give some props to the developers who realized the last thing Florida needed was more housing on golf course.



Anywhoooooooooooooooo................ as others noted before, there's 2 piles of dirt at the san marco publix site

Come on man, there has to be at least 12 piles!

Heard thru the grapevine that lululemon will be going in the San Marco square where Dancing Elephant used to be. Anyone else hear this?

About time!

Impossible.

Sure would have been nice to line the rest of Hendricks with retail.  It would be facing the rest of the retail across the street and in the square adding some nice synergistic energy to the corridor.  At least have retail at the corner of Hendricks and Alford as traffic from the south approaches the property. 

Can they go back and add these retail opportunities later?

^Anything's possible. Looks like you could fit about a 2k sq/ft building there while only losing 3-4 parking spaces. You'd just need to figure out somewhere else to put the dumpsters.

Chance for future infill, I guess.

I doubt it will happen as long as a Publix is there. Publix needs a certain amount of parking spaces. Adding an additional building would take that away, while adding the need for more parking to accommodate the additional retail square footage.

I don't know how many spaces are in this garage on the first level but the Publix in Riverside and Fresh Market in Brooklyn don't seem to have an overabundance of spaces.  That said, it takes some patience to get a space at those stores but given shoppers seem to turnover pretty quickly at grocery stores, on average, it doesn't take long to find a space opening up.

^The 28k square foot Riverside store is one of their smaller models. There's enough parking there for it. When I worked for a firm that designed stores for them, they had a certain number of off-street spaces they required based off the square footage of the store. I don't know Fresh Market's model.

Misread this exchange and thought Ennis was just really excited about the new Lululemon.

Never struck me as a Lulu guy

To that point, the only way I could see this is if somehow the parking was retained. For example, second floor
shops/offices with parking (shrouded) on the ground floor.
