"Now it's just 90% bars and only 10% restaurants," she says.
"If we can even that out to add some more restaurants down there, and some more live music concepts, some more reasons for people to show up there on Monday through Friday or anywhere else during the day, that'll be what we consider successful."

The city is considering a code amendment to lift the height limits on the properties Stream plans to redevelop, which would allow for more creative spaces on the ground floor.
