Question on P/SF (Restaurant vs. Office)
I am not a commercial real estate expert by any means - in my limited experience it seems that restaurant's yield a greater P/SF than offices do.

1. Is this true?
2. Why is this true (if so)?
[{"id": "eaxolus", "text": "I would say this is true. The reason for this is typically the setup/build-out for a restaurant is much more expensive (think of the all ventilation/fans/hoods etc etc) in comparison to an office which is very minimal. more $$$ buildout = more $$$ P/SF", "replies": [{"id": "eay0ocm", "text": "^^^ ", "replies": [], "depth": 2}], "depth": 1}, {"id": "eaxr1uj", "text": "It depends but broadly yes.
