Dranoff's 777 S. Broad Street, a few blocks north - closer to CC - currently has ZERO retail spots filled. The owner of Tashan called taking a gamble at this location a big mistake. There's just no there, there. City planning totally failed south Broad Street:

I feel like they need to eliminate the empty lots and strip mall aesthetic to Broad Street, replaced with reasonable scale buildings from South to Christian, before attempting to build this thing all the way down at Washington Avenue. If Dranoff can't fill a single retail space in a more desirable location 3 blocks away, how is this gonna work?

Don't forget further up as well. Juniper Commons on Broad and South failed in under a year.
