3 Background & Purpose In 2011, the West Palm Beach Downtown Development Authority (DDA) launched a marketing research program to assist the development of its marketing plan. The DDA continued this program in 2012 and 2013 to provide an update as well as provide information on a trended basis in order to track progress and change. The goal of the research is to provide understanding and insights of current visitors in terms of visit behavior, spending, wants/needs, satisfaction, demographic profile, etc. Additionally, an understanding of market area residents in terms of awareness, visitation, perception of the area, barriers to visitation, etc. is sought. As such, a twopart research study has been undertaken. This report presents findings from the first part of the research - an on-site survey of visitors to downtown WPB. The second part of the research, reported separately, is a telephone survey of area residents. Radius Global Market Research 3
4 Methodology Personal intercept interview West Palm Beach DDA named as survey sponsor; $100 gift card to downtown business offered to promote participation Interview length was 10 minutes on average Interviewing schedule was comparable to prior years: Saturday, November 14, CityPlace Tree Lighting (6pm to 9pm) Saturday, November 21, Greenmarket (9am to 1pm) Thursday, December 3, Clematis District (Sand Sculptures Lighting), (4pm to 9pm) Friday, December 4, Clematis District (10am to 2pm) Friday, December 11, Screen On The Green (7pm) Friday, December 18, CityPlace (10am to 2pm) Saturday, December 19, Clematis District (10am to 2pm) Thursday January 7, Clematis District (10am to 2pm) Thursday January 7, CityPlace (10am to 2pm) Sunday, February 28, Harmony, (3pm) Rotation across locations throughout each area Sample size of 271 (n=254 in 2013 n=251 in 2012 and 250 in 2011) Sampling error of no greater than +/- 6.0% in total at the 95% level of confidence Radius Global Market Research 4
5 How to Read This Report Significance testing has been conducted among the various subgroups presented. Letters denote a significant difference versus the subgroup indicated at the 95% level of confidence. The term Top 2 Box refers to respondents providing a 9 or 10 rating (on a 10 point scale) on a particular question/topic. In addition to trending by survey year (2011 and 2012 vs. 2013), several subgroups are presented in this report: Visit Condition (interview conducted during Special Event, at CityPlace, in the Clematis District, Not Special Event) The following subgroups were reviewed (data available in the cross-tabulation reports) and, depending on relevance, may or may not be presented herein: Clematis District Time of Day (Lunch, Afternoon, Evening) Demographics Top Areas/Zip Codes of Residence Radius Global Market Research 5
6 Summary of Findings Radius Global Market Research 6
7 Overview In general, perceptions of Downtown West Palm Beach continue to be high among downtown visitors. First time visitation of special events and the Clematis District are up, while visitation of CityPlace has continues to be high (and is a favorite destination of downtown visitors). The downtown area s strengths continue to be it s atmosphere, scenery, restaurants, and events. The area s top weakness continues to be parking. Perceptions have declined among Special Event Visitors and, to a lesser degree, Clematis District visitors in terms of safety, parking, special events, entertainment, restaurant and shopping choices, accessibility, and ease of finding your way around. Radius Global Market Research 7
8 Overview Special events and dining continue to be top draws to the downtown area. In fact, when asked what would encourage future visitation, it s clear that visitors want more events; more events, more free events, and more family events, were all frequently cited. Opportunity exists to draw in more people by appealing to families with children. The only event that drew a large proportion of visitors with children was the Tree Lighting Ceremony. In addition to offering more events, there appears to be an opportunity to get the word out more about events that are going on. Less than half of surveyed downtown visitors were even aware of Sunday on the Waterfront, the Seafood Festival, and Art after Dark at the Norton Museum. With the exception of Family Fun Fest at City Place, awareness of all the events is much higher among households without children than it is households with children. Radius Global Market Research 8
9 Summary of Findings VISITATION While the majority of visitors to downtown West Palm Beach continue to be repeat visitors (87%), first-time visitation has increased significantly compared two years ago (13% vs. 4% in 2013). In particular, first-time visitation has increased among special event visitors (12% vs. 3% in 2013) and Clematis District visitors (17% vs. 3% in 2013). Visitors reported visiting downtown West Palm Beach an average of 16 times in the past year, which is slightly higher than recent years (14.6 in 2013, 13.4 in 2012). MAIN REASON FOR VISIT At 40%, surveyed visitors 1 continue to be most likely to report that an event is their primary reason for visiting downtown West Palm Beach; dining (19%), municipal/community offerings such as the fountains and library (16%), and shopping (12%) are also mentioned frequently. Dining as a primary reason for visitation has rebounded after falling dramatically in 2013 (19% from 6% in 2013). As would be expected visitors surveyed during Special Event times cite the event itself as their primary reason for visiting. 1 Radius Global Market Research excluding those surveyed at special events 9
10 Summary of Findings ALL REASONS FOR VISIT Events (67%) and dining (55%) continue to be major components of a visit to downtown West Palm Beach. More surveyed visitors are mentioning dining as a component of this visit to downtown than did so in 2013 (55% vs. 36%). In terms of specific reasons, the tree lighting and Macy s (each 26%) garnered the most mentions. Duffy s (19%) and Panera Bread (11%) were cited most frequently as downtown WPB destinations for dining and/or coffee. Downtown visitors (excluding those surveyed at special events) continued to cite dining (57%), events (42%), and shopping (42%) as top draws to the downtown area. Excluding special events, Duffy s (19%) and Starbucks (17%) were cited most frequently as downtown WPB dining destinations. PLACES EVER VISITED When 2015 visitors were asked what places in downtown West Palm Beach they have ever visited, special events (85%) were mentioned most often. In particular, the Greenmarket was cited by 42% of visitors, 29% cited Sunday on the Waterfront (including ballet/harmony), 28% cited the Tree Lighting, 19% cited Clematis By Night, 12% cited SunFest, and 10% cited Screen on the Green. Compared to 2013, we are seeing significant increases in the number of visitors saying they have ever visited downtown for dining (75% vs. 39% in 2013), special events (85% vs. 75% in 2013), shopping (45% vs. 23% in 2013), entertainment (47% vs. 13% in 2013), municipal/public places (43% vs. 25% in 2013). While in the past, events were heavy draws for visitors with children, this was not the case in The only event that drew a large proportion of visitors with children was the Tree Lighting Ceremony, at which 47% of visitors had children. Radius Global Market Research 10
11 Summary of Findings AIDED AWARENESS AND VISITATION OF SPECIFIC EVENTS When it comes to awareness of specific events (on a prompted basis), downtown visitors are most likely to be aware of Greenmarket (61%), the Tree Lighting at CityPlace (54%) and Clematis By Night (51%). With the exception of Family Fun Fest at City Place, awareness of all the events is much higher among households without children than it is households with children. When it comes to visitation of these specific events, Greenmarket garners the highest visitation among downtown visitors at 50%, followed by Clematis By Night at 39% and the Tree Lighting at 34%. Similar to the trend in awareness cited above, visitation of all events except Family Fun Fest is higher among those without children. Crossover attendance is lowest among visitors to the Clematis District these visitors are least likely to say they have ever attended any of the specific events asked about (with the exception of the Seafood Festival). Most of those who have attended these events say they would attend again. Very few of those who wouldn t attend again have specific complaints about the event itself. ARTS AND CULTURAL VENUES VISITED When asked on a prompted basis which arts and cultural venues they have ever visited, the Kravis Center (52%) and the Norton Museum of Art (37%) were mentioned most frequently by surveyed downtown visitors. As seen with regard to event visitation above, visitors to the Clematis District are least likely to say they have ever visited any of the specific arts and cultural venues asked about. (the exception is Dramaworks). Radius Global Market Research 11
12 Summary of Findings CHARACTERISTICS OF THE VISIT Most downtown WPB visitors continue to arrive by car (70%) although that is down from two years ago when 87% of downtown visitors arrived by car. As compared to 2013, more visitors are arriving by bus (9% this year vs. 2%) or arriving by paid car service (taxi/uber) (7% this year vs. 0%). Visitors are taking longer to arrive downtown than they did in the past (21.2 minutes this year on average, vs minutes in 2013 and 16.7 minutes reported in 2012). Visitors to CityPlace reported the longest average travel times (29.9 minutes) compared to 20.3 minutes among Clematis District visitors and 19.6 minutes among Special Event visitors. On average, visitors are spending 2.4 hours on average downtown. Visitors to CityPlace tend to spend the longest time in the area (3.0 hours) while Clematis District visitors tend to stay the shortest time (1.2 hours). On average, downtown visitors are spending $66.20 while there. Visitors to CityPlace continue to report spending significantly more ($77.70 per visit on average) than visitors to the Clematis District ($71.60) or Special Events ($61.60). Radius Global Market Research 12
13 Summary of Findings IMAGE - DESCRIPTORS When asked to describe downtown West Palm Beach, visitors tend to be very positive, using words such as paradise, alive, and beautiful. Many visitors specifically mention the improvement they ve seen in the downtown area as compared to the past. While few residents describe downtown West Palm Beach in negative terms, those who do comment on the crowds. IMAGE STRENGTHS & WEAKNESSES When asked specifically to provide the area s strong points, the downtown visitors most frequently mention the atmosphere (66%). Other frequently mentioned strong points include the scenery (38%), restaurants (31%) and events (28%). When asked specifically to provide the area s weak points, the most frequently mentioned topics center on parking specifically parking is a hassle (46%) and parking is too expensive (27%). Radius Global Market Research 13
14 Summary of Findings RATINGS OF DOWNTOWN WEST PALM BEACH When it comes to ratings of downtown West Palm Beach, downtown visitors were most likely to rate the area highly in terms of atmosphere, cleanliness, and quality of shopping establishments in 2015 (64%, 57%, and 54% respectively). All parking related attributes continue to garner the fewest positive ratings, with parking fees on special event days being rated the lowest (14%). Perceptions have declined since two years ago with regard to safety, parking, special events, entertainment, restaurant and shopping choices, accessibility, and ease of finding your way around. Most of these declines are among Special Event Visitors and, to a lesser degree, Clematis District visitors. Perceptions among CityPlace visitors have generally improved. When it comes to demographics, those with children are rating the downtown area significantly lower when it comes to special events (39% vs. 53% among those without children) and quality of restaurants (29% vs. 48% among those without children). Radius Global Market Research 14
15 Summary of Findings FUTURE VISITATION At 60% (rated 9 or 10 on a 1-10 likelihood scale), likelihood to visit downtown West Palm Beach again in the future remains relatively high however it is down from prior years (78% in 2013, 80% in 2012). This decrease may be due to increased first-time visitation seen this year; some of these visitors may have come for a specific activity such as a special event and are unlikely to revisit it. This year, CityPlace visitors are the most likely to say they are highly likely to visit again in the future (92% compared to 58% for Special Event visitors and 45% for Clematis District visitors). In fact, likelihood of future visitation has actually increased significantly among CityPlace visitors compared to the past (92% likely vs. 71% in 2013). However, likelihood to visit in the future has declined among Special Events visitors (58% likely vs. 77% in 2013) and Clematis District visitors (45% likely vs. 82% in 2013). When asked what would encourage future visitation, it s clear that visitors want more events; more events (26%), more free events (25%), more family events (21%), and free parking (22%) were most frequently cited. LIKELIHOOD TO VISIT FOR ARTS AND CULTURE Similar to 2013, about one-half of area residents indicated that they are likely to visit downtown West Palm Beach for arts and cultural activities in the next year. Likelihood to visit for arts and cultural activities is highest among visitors to CityPlace (63%). Radius Global Market Research 15
16 Summary of Findings SUGGESTIONS ADDITIONAL OFFERINGS As of 2015, we asked downtown visitors to give us examples of Arts and Cultural Events taking place elsewhere, that they would enjoy if they were happening in Downtown WPB. Events that were frequently mentioned include Art Festivals/Art shows, Food Festivals (Delray Seafood Festival, Feast of Italy, etc.), and Latin Cultural Events (Dia Del Muerto, etc.) When asked what would be important additions to the downtown area, art galleries and casual dining were mentioned most often (by 24% and 23%, respectively, of visitors). CityPlace visitors also want antique stores, and a book and/or music store. Radius Global Market Research 16
17 Summary of Findings LIFESTYLE - FAVORITE LOCATION CityPlace continues to be cited most often as a favorite area for shopping, dining, and entertainment (cited as a favorite by 33% of downtown visitors). Other locations of note include Clematis Street and The Mall at Wellington Green, cited by 13% and 10% as favorites (respectively). The number of residents citing CityPlace as a favorite destination has increased significantly among downtown visitors compared to two years ago (from 24% in 2013 to 33%). CityPlace is much more likely to be cited as a favorite destination among those single/unmarried (41% vs. 29% among those married) and among those without children (37% vs. 25% among those with children). The Palm Beach Outlets were also mentioned by a sizeable segment of downtown visitors as a favorite location, and it s close proximity may be cannibalizing downtown visitation slightly. This year we also asked respondents to tell us what makes that location their favorite one. City Place is praised mostly for having everything in the same place, offering a variety of shopping, dining and entertainment in an upscale atmosphere. Reasons to favor Atlantic Avenue include the busy atmosphere and many places to dine and sightsee. As for Clematis Street, the fountains are a huge draw, as well as window shopping and dining. Radius Global Market Research 17
18 Summary of Findings LIFESTYLE TOTAL MENTIONS OF LOCATIONS FREQUENTED When it comes to area locations offering a variety of activities (e.g. shopping, dining, arts, culture, and entertainment), CityPlace continues to be the area location that s most frequently visited by downtown visitors (56%). Clematis Street, the Gardens Mall, downtown Lake Worth, and the Mall at Wellington Green are also mentioned frequently (30%, 29%, 24%, and 24%, respectively). Mentions of downtown Lake Worth have increased significantly - from 9% in The Mall at Wellington Green is the only area mentioned significantly more so by those with children at home than those without (33% vs. 20%) presumably due to the playground. LIFESTYLE NORTHWOOD VILLAGE VISITATION Just about one-quarter of downtown visitors have visited Northwood Village (28%) Visitation is highest among residents age 65 and over (44%) and is much higher among those without children in household (33% vs. 13% among those with children). Radius Global Market Research 18
19 Summary of Findings SOURCES OF NEWS/INFORMATION Newspapers are cited most frequently among downtown visitors as a source of news and information about local events, shopping, dining, and entertainment (41%.) Mentions of TV and the Internet as sources are down compared to 2013 (from 37% to 21% for TV; from 37% to 16% for internet). Social Media is a rising source of information, with 16% of residents mentioning it in That s twice the number of mentions as compared to Social Media is more likely to be cited by those under the age of 35 (26%) and those with children at home (26%). RESIDENCY Two-thirds of surveyed downtown visitors were year round Palm Beach County residents (68%); 20% were seasonal residents and 9% were non-resident visitors.

34 Image - Descriptors When you think of downtown West Palm Beach, regardless of whether or not you have ever visited, what thoughts, words and images come to mind? (Open end question) Paradise on earth. Love the arts and entertainment. I love how there's so much color and life The waterfront is beautiful. It's an exciting place to visit, a vibrant area with lots of young people and activities. It's crowded at night, it's so alive. It's come along way from 20 years ago when this was a place you didn't want to visit. Family oriented place to have dinner and walk around A lot to do City feel but just lovely. I meet a lot of friends here reminds me of Europe a bit. A lot safer than it used to be and cleaner, more suave. It s a nice walk around area beautiful, good shopping, food, fun, relaxing and safe We love this area although we're concerned about CityPlace because its becoming a dining place only. There needs to be more diversity. A city feel with a small town flavor -- intimacy, shows, coffee -- enjoy. Relaxed environment - you've got everything you need in walking distance - shops, restaurants, entertainment. A lot of good shops and restaurants but not very friendly to youth Improved. Clematis still not great, but CityPlace is someplace for new people to visit with lots of variety. Crowded Chaotic Crowded-- a lot of homeless people Radius Global Market Research 34
