Retail Characterized by Hyper-Mart Culture
Joel Garreau
Edge Cities feature a retail culture dominated by large hypermarkets catering to an auto-dependent population.
Context
Commercial centers within Edge Cities aiming to attract suburban shoppers.
Problem
Traditional small-scale retail is insufficient in attracting suburban populations who prefer convenience and variety in one place.
Solution
Develop large-scale retail centers or hypermarts that offer a wide range of goods and ample parking for suburban clientele.
