I don't think the Domain is overly interested in Bus Stops going there.

The Domain is going for a higher end clientel in both the food and stores that are there. While you do have some of your mall staple stores at the Domain, it's also the only Nieman, Barney's or Burberry in Austin.

My guess is the Domain doesn't want bus stops there because thethey don't want people who ride the bus at the Domain. Or more importantly, they want their heigh end clients to feel like shopping at the domain is an "exclusive" experience reserved for the wealthly and the 30,000 dollar millionairres who like to think they are wealthy.

Not that this view is "right", but I think it's the reality of the situation.

I say this as someone who had a 17 year old girl roll her eyes at me and mutter "I hate people" to her mom at the Bergdorf Goodman in midtown while she was trying to look at some 10,000 dollar jeans.
