I never really thought retail stores would do well in the town squares. It's just not where people go to shop.

Downtown retail stores can also serve for shipping & delivery services. Many retail stores ship to online buyers. I recently bought a birthday gift online which shipped from a retail store in Dallas TX to Denver CO for instance. When I bought it, I was unaware where it would ship from. No need to know.
