I heard recently that the ratio of retail stores per capita in the U.S. is far, far higher than in Europe; the upshot being that there's going to be a LOT of vacant retail buildings in the years to come.
What gives you the idea that US retail will converge upon what exists in Europe? If anything, I would guess the opposite is true, that European retail will continue to follow trends you see in the US (and elsewhere). For example, more large chains, more competition/overlap, etc.
