Its not an anecdote. Have you spent any time in NYC? Why do I need to search for numbers comparing brick and mortar vs online? Of course online retail is growing faster than brick and mortar but the topic here is New York City which is an outlier. NYC is a shopping destination for US, international and tri-state area tourists. People come to NYC specifically so they can shop along the retail corridors of Broadway in Midtown, Soho, Nolita and the Meat Packing Districts, The Flatiron and many others. It's seen as an experience since you can walk, shop and see landmarks like Rockefeller Center, The Empire State building, Grand Central while you do so. https://therealdeal.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Manhattan_Retail_MarketView_Q1-2017.pdf https://therealdeal.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Manhattan...
