This restaurant was a Bonefish Grill restaurant about nine years ago. The owners were the same; therefore they kept everything as it was. They just changed the name and added some decorative items to the exterior and as he mentioned they had to make some changes recently in order to become more attractive for consumers.
This restuarant was a Steak'n Snake before. The new owner believed that nothing from the previous restaurant was worthy to keep. He uses the building itself as kitchen of the restaurant and added a patio as the place for customers to sit and dine. He also added so many decorations to the exterior of the building that doesnot have anything in common with the previous restaurant. This restaurant is on Peachtree road.
This is a restuarant that opens recently. The owner said he has changed everything and added the patio to the restuarant. He mentioned that everything was old in the previous restuarant and that the interior and exterior were out of fashion. Therefore, nothing remains the same as the previous restuarant except the skeleton of the building. He has tried to design new interior in order to attract customers. This restuarant is on the Peachtree road.
Your second example is relevant. The others don't represent a change in *kind* of tenant as suggested in the readings or the suggested Websites, which is the phenomenon I wanted you to explore. Straightforward renovations between tenants is quite different than recycling of the strip for new populations. That said, it's great that you spoke to the proprietors. What can we learn from the kinds of change made to these places by the current occupants?
