& shy; Tea-Booth Street commercial format is messy
& shy; Yesterday, the reporter learned from an interview that tea-Booth Street, which was opened to traffic for more than six years, finally had some vitality. Merchants basically settled in shops on both sides of the street, and the passenger flow also showed a trend of returning. However, in an interview with reporters, insiders believe that the commercial formats of tea-Booth Street are messy now, and the “hodgepodge” type of business is difficult to integrate with its architectural features. In the future, the subway will be gradually improved after it is opened to traffic.
& shy; The popularity of tea-Booth streets has gradually returned after opening to traffic for more than six years.
& shy; It is understood that tea-Booth Street was opened to traffic after the transformation at the end of December, 2009. After more than six years, many shops have entered on both sides of the street, including more well-known McDonald’s, KFC, luxury customers, juran home, Wanjia convenience, etc., some merchants also occupy several shops. In many restaurants, there are also many consumers eating at noon. “When the first two years opened, the passenger flow was very small, and the business was much better this year.” The staff of a fast food restaurant said yesterday Tea-Booth.
& shy; The responsible person of the luxury guest came to tell the reporter that they have entered tea-Booth Street for more than two years. When they first entered the street, the surrounding area was still empty. Last year, more and more merchants settled nearby. “At present, there are some office buildings around, so the business of many restaurants is not bad.”
& shy; When it comes to old tea-Booth Street, many Fuzhou citizens still remember it. It is understood that in ancient times, it was necessary to go to the city from Wanshou Bridge in Nantai (that is, today’s unenlarged Bridge) or from the city to Nantai, and it was necessary to go through tea-booth th Street. After the late Qing Dynasty, some traditional craftsmen built wooden houses on tea-Booth Street to open shops, engaged in the production and sales of iron, horn comb, musical instruments, umbrellas, clay sculptures and other handicrafts, tea-Booth Street has gradually become Fuzhou traditional handicraft workshop Street. During its heyday, there were more than 30 stores on tea-Booth Street in a single clay figure.
& shy; It is understood that old tea-Booth Street has become the “obstruction” of the central axis of Fuzhou city due to narrow roads, dense telegraph poles and slow traffic “. In 2006, our city began to transform tea-Booth Street. By the end of 2009, tea-Booth Street was rebuilt.
& shy; The reporter learned that according to the original plan, new tea-Booth Street will reflect the characteristics of Taijiang Shijing’s commercial culture, but in fact, few merchants settled in tea-Booth Street after opening to traffic, few of the original traditional craft shops have settled again, and their popularity is bleak. In the eyes of many citizens, tea-Booth Street has become a fast lane without commercial atmosphere.
& shy; Original title: Tea-Booth Street popularity begins to return to “hodgepodge” business or improvement by subway
& shy; “hodgepodge” business or improvement with subway
& shy; The reporter noticed that the commercial format of tea-Booth Street is extremely messy. In addition to catering, home furnishing, convenience stores, and pharmacies, there are many other formats, such as clothing, hotels, Internet cafes, billiard halls, physiotherapy, second-hand housing intermediary, beauty, oral cavity, financial loans, etc. are completely “hodgepodge”.
& shy; “The messy format is incompatible with the current architectural style of tea-Booth.” Some catering merchants on tea-Booth Street said that most of the merchants currently settled in are coming for the future subway. Fuzhou Metro Line 1 runs through tea-Booth Street and has tea-booth stations. After the future is opened to traffic, the passenger flow of tea-Booth may increase significantly. In the interview, some merchants also said that the number of large businesses in tea-Booth is also increasing, which is expected to bring considerable popularity after opening.
& shy; Industry insiders said that from the situation of other cities, the passenger flow brought by subway may not drive the sales of commercial formats in the region, and the characteristics of subway passenger flow are rapid flow, therefore, in general, convenient and fast commercial formats will benefit, such as convenience stores and fast food restaurants. Of course, if there are large specialty business Street (SBS) or shopping centers around the subway station, it may also attract consumers from further areas to consume due to convenient transportation.
& shy; According to the reporter’s understanding, the tea-Booth Street business has been partially divided, and some small catering and clothing stores have posted transfer cards. Industry insiders believe that after the operation of Metro Line 1 in the future, the trend of elimination and integration of this industry will be more obvious, and the messy state is expected to gradually improve.
