Retailing in the city centre: the characters of shopping streets

Auteurs :
DAVIES, R. L.
BENNISON, O. J.

Description :
This paper argues for greater attention to be given to the character of shopping streets as a basis for describing the retail structure of the central area. The advantages are that the unit of streets provides a suitable scale level of enquiry for relating macro models of broad areal locations to micro models of individual business sites and is the most appropriate scale level at which to relate geographical concepts to actual problems that exist. The arguments put forward are supported by a case study of the city centre of Newcastle. (AGD).
