Salt Lake City's population growth does not equate to increased retail demand; each new resident supports less than 7.5 square feet of retail due to e-commerce impacts.
Despite the surge in restaurant openings and an oversaturation of supermarkets, the downtown area remains under-utilized as post-covid inflation drives up food prices, diminishing consumer demand.
The perception of under-amenitization on the West Side is influenced by historical development and existing population density, rather than a targeted conspiracy against the local POC community.
Richard's Rules for Restaurant-Based Revitalization provide a framework for enhancing the local economy via dining experiences, emphasizing the need for thoughtful development in post-pandemic conditions.
