00:07 You know, if it goes down that route of having food stalls, maybe they could attach some sort of clothing stalls,

00:16 or jewellery store stalls, or small independent sort of shops and things.

00:21 So yeah, that would work. That would probably bring a few more people in to actually shop, rather than eating and drinking.

00:29 That's good, but it perhaps needs a few other things along with it to help it along the way, you know.

00:43 When you look at Forge Bakery, how successful they've been queuing out the door, there's a big demand in the century floor, things like that.

00:49 And I would have guessed that on what, you know, four or five floors, you could probably get maybe 50 odd different retailers in.
