It doesn’t matter what kind of new shopping center construction you desire–whether it is a Power Center, a Lifestyle Center, or a strip mall in a high-traffic infill location–nothing will be built unless the numbers make sense for the commercial construction budget.

Also, heed my warning on hiring low-bidding pick-up truck contractors. Keep in mind, it becomes more important to re-use features when you’re working with temporary or pop-up retail tenants than with long-term leases. And I know people don’t believe this, but the best Chicago contractors hate change orders.
