Non food/retail:
-Apple Store
-House of Hoops (new Nike/Footlocker store dedicated to basketball apparel, it could do well in our hoops crazed city)
-H&M and/or Buffalo Exchange
-Blockbuster/Hollywood video (there is nowhere downtown to rent movies) Anyway, there probably isn't room for all of those, especially since I listed a ton of eateries. Any places I didn't list that you'd like to see? Downtown currently lacks a lot in the way of retail, especially clothing, so hopefully Cityscape can fill that need.

nice list. Earlier in the thread, i was calling for an H&M too.
Since its fun to speculate, i'd like to see:
RETAIL/GROCERY
H&M
Retail Labratory
Barney's
Barnes & Noble (i can't stand the layout of Borders)
Apple
AJ's
Blockbuster
RESTAURANTS/CAFES
Asia de Cuba
PF Chang's
A Sam Richardson Argentine Steakhouse concept
Salt Lick BBQ (
http://www.saltlickbbq.com/)
Alamo Draft House (
http://www.drafthouse.com/)
Lebanese, Ethiopian, Thai or other unique ethnic boutique restaurant
Coffee Plantation
Cereality (solid idea, Hoover .. and its local)
BARS
A f'ing decent sports bar (yes Majerle's is shite -- maybe a Half Moon)
Rooftop/basement speakeasy type bar (like Monroe's used to be like)
A rooftop wine bar or Barcelona concept (cougars!)
A country/juke box bar (TT Roadhouse/Rogue people?)
I'm from Austin, and downtown, 6th/5th/4th street, and the warehouse district all have rooftop drinking ... especially since its smoke-free too. People like to have a GD cocktail on the roof, DO THIS!!
I know this is waaaay more than there is room, but dreaming's free.
