This week on Florida Matters we're talking about how the retail industry is changing in an increasingly digital world.

We also discuss the role retail stores will play in some of the major new developments going on in our area, like the Water Street district in downtown Tampa.

Host Robin Sussingham talks about that in this preview with Paul Rutledge, First Vice President, Retail Brokerage in CBRE's Tampa office, and Ashley Gurbal Kritzer, senior reporter with the Tampa Bay Business Journal.

I’m the editor for Your Florida, a project focused on connecting people with state government and policies passed in Tallahassee that affect their lives. I’m passionate about highlighting community efforts to improve the quality of life in our state and am committed to holding those in power accountable when they fail to prioritize the needs of people they serve.
