What are your predictions for commercial real estate in 2019? - by mayor Dean Mazzarella

Dean Mazzarella
City of Leominster, MA

I expect that we will see more boutique type shops and  more specialty shops coming to the city.  
I think there will be a transformation from standard retail to more adventure and experience-related retail.  People are now looking for unique gifts and different things to do.  
Retailers are learning that to compete they have to reach out to consumers and offer them personal and specialized services.  
I think local retailers will remain strong as the economy continues to grow in the new year.
