Transforming Retail Vacancies for Tomorrow’s Cities feat. Larisa Ortiz, Managing Director, Streetsense

Larisa Ortiz, Managing Director at Streetsense, joins podcast host Andrew Southern on this episode of Redesigning Normal. Streetsense is an experience-focused strategy and design collective. In her role, Larisa focuses on the needs of public and nonprofit organizations that operate in downtown and Main Street locations.

Streetsense’s work is based on seeing physical places. Larisa describes how her organization worked to adjust projects and reevaluate client needs.  She also discusses how they supported their clients through the rapid pivot to online selling and delivery.

You’ll also learn about the impact widespread remote work could have on our cities (e.g. fluctuating property values and changing transportation patterns) and why ground floor residential spaces can help revitalize neighborhoods.
