EXPERIENCE

A woman-owned company, Retail Compass focuses exclusively on retail market analysis and planning in urban neighborhoods.  This approach allows us to remain current on new innovations and trends in this constantly changing area of real estate investment.

To this mixture of art and science, we add our knowledge about what has succeeded elsewhere.

  • City of Falls Church Comprehensive Retail Analysis
    Falls Church, Virginia

    In preparation for a significant increase in local development, the City of Falls Church, Virginia retained Retail Compass to analyze the market and determine an appropriate amount of retail growth for the community.  Our efforts started with gaining a better understanding of the existing inventory and then expanded to studying the impact of local retail competition – including nearby Tyson’s Corner Center – on Falls Church ’s retail development potential.  The conclusions of this document now serve as a retail planning tool for the City.

  • Old Town Manassas Retail Study
    Manassas, Virginia

    As a component of a citywide planning effort, retail market conditions were a critical piece of information for managing future decisions in the City of Manassas.   Retail Compass joined the planning team to investigate existing retail in Old Town Manassas and to evaluate retail development potential for the next ten years.  As a second phase of this study, Retail Compass will identify locations for retail growth and recommend appropriate types of retail based on market demand.

  • DC Neighborhood Revitalization TIF District Analysis
    Washington DC

    The District of Columbia has pioneered the creation of tax-increment financing (TIF)districts to support retail redevelopment and reinvestment.  Retail Compass was retained to evaluate the retail market potential of seven neighborhoods under consideration for the implementation of retail TIF districts.
