Commentary and reflections on, ‘The existential crisis of traditional shopping streets: the sun model and the place attraction paradigm’, by Matthew Carmona, with particular reference to the Australian retail milieu

Overall, the spatial arrangement of land uses comprises strong retail activity corridors with a diverse retail offering, framed by single dwelling residential areas, which have all but disappeared by 2016. Throughout the nineteenth century, Australia's retail landscape was typified by small shops at street level, commonly with attached dwellings, echoing that found in Britain. Retail activity is not immune to this process as technological innovations have had profound implications for the retail sector since the First Industrial Revolution ca.1800 when steel framed glass roofed arcades were constructed (Drechsler [10]). This informative paper by Matthew Carmona ([7]), explores the crisis facing retail high streets as a result of the rapid adoption of online shopping from the beginning of this century.
