The demographic that is increasingly living downtown--the young--are the most likely to online shop, so stores that are already heavily threatened by online shopping are not the ones that are going to be investing in downtown stores.

I wonder if Toronto's Dundas Square store is shuttering. That storefront must be very high value with expensive rent so the company may not want to continue paying for it. Somewhat sad as that building was a pretty cool example of what are normally big box retail functioning in an urban manner.
