If you had your magic wand, what would you like to see in this corner CRU (~889 sqft)?

Not big enough for a sit-in eatery but maybe a take-out place that would be popular with students -- pizza, donairs, etc.; a niche specialty shop could also do well here. The owners should buy into an aggressive-minded young entrepreneur charging only a profit percentage for rent (no base) -- the onus for success would be shared by the owners, willing to take a chance.

Something akin to a Spinelli's (sized appropriate for the space). Quick, casual, quality food, coffee, ice cream. Couple spots to sit inside, couple outside, but primarily used in passing and on the way to the park. Even better if you somehow get Spinelli's (maybe I just want a panino this morning
)

It’s too small for most uses and there are too many uses that would find it difficult to respect their residential neighbours.
My magic wand would see a shoe cobbler/leather repair operator - whether an independent or a franchise like Moneysworth & Best - that would be a semi-destination and not totally reliant on walk-by or students to be successful.

A high quality bagel shop, ala June's that used to be in Highlands.

There used to be a great shoe repair shop down the street there years ago before the Parks was built.

Anything service. Cafe, sandwich shop, dry cleaner/tailor, etc. A cafe would be closest thing to the new park.
