Dedicated source population
Retail sale universe has not been extracted or reconciled.
Evidence specification ready · no unvalidated statistics
Rochester commercial research vertical
Retail research, built around evidence.
Future sale, format, corridor, and geography research using the shared legal-transaction and suppression system.
Open the Market ExplorerPublication state
The page is live. The dataset is not.
This route establishes the canonical research method and evidence requirements. It deliberately contains no transaction totals, market pricing, maps, or trend claims until a dedicated population passes the same legal-deal, source-lineage, privacy, and sample gates used by the live multifamily work.
Evidence gates
What has to be true before release.
Format classification
Neighborhood retail, freestanding, plaza, and other formats require source-backed definitions.
Public aggregate release
No retail market statistics are published.
Asset-specific schema
Comparable only inside a supported lens.
LensDefinitionPublication gate
Retail formatNeighborhood storefront, freestanding, plaza, or another supported configuration.Source fields and manual review produce stable, non-overlapping definitions.
Building sizeSupported gross building area, distinct from lot area.Coverage and observed distribution support stable bands.
Corridor / geographyVerified public polygon or documented corridor rule.At least five legal transactions and dominance review clear the cell.
Price per square footVerified consideration divided by supported building area.Land-heavy, portfolio, and mixed-use limitations are disclosed.
Required evidence
Source before statistic.
Create a dedicated licensed closed-sale discovery population rather than repurposing industrial or mixed-use rows.
Reconcile parcel, deed, building area, use format, and legal transaction grain.
Define corridor and submarket rules before mapping; do not use hand-drawn marketing districts.
Withhold rents, cap rates, NOI, occupancy, and tenant claims until separate evidence systems support them.
Shared controls
Every vertical inherits the same release discipline.
- Publish aggregate cells only; raw licensed rows and record-level restricted details remain private.
- Require at least five clean legal transactions for a public price or geography cell, then perform a dominance and re-identification review.
- Show retrieval date, covered close dates, source coverage, sample size, suppressed cells, and partial periods with every release.
- Do not publish cap rate, NOI, occupancy, clear height, loading, rail, or owner-user status unless the relevant field passes its own coverage and verification gate.
- Cross-asset comparisons are limited to compatible definitions and periods. An unavailable metric stays unavailable instead of being proxied.
Current next action
Build the source population, then earn the chart.
The platform code, route, schema, suppression language, and cross-asset compatibility rules are ready. The next release step is a dedicated source extraction and reconciliation—not placeholder numbers.
