We saw drawings for new Chicago restaurant projects, retail construction work, office renovations, school construction and learning center additions – you name it, we saw it. In fact, our commercial construction budget work was back to 2008 levels. Developers and retailers that would normally go 2 deep in bidding went 4 deep.

When it comes to current retail and commercial construction trends , we all know there aren’t a lot of new shopping centers under construction right now, or new office buildings under construction for that matter. we came in on time and under budget without one complaint from any of the retailers. No complaints?

As a shopping center landlord or retail developer, you might find yourself with a big empty retail space you need fill – especially if you had Borders or Circuit City as a tenant. Say a big tenant signs a lease that leaves you with 7,500 square feet. that leased attractive tenants such as Koenig & Strey Real Living.
