    A photograph of the attendees at the Tozanso Conference Center 100th anniversary celebrations, Nov. 21, 2015. This is copy with hand-written names identifying some of the important attendees to this celebration. The photograph was taken after the completion of the festivities at the Tozanso Conference Center main auditorium.YMCA Tozanso is a conference center in Gotemba City, Japan. It has one of the best viewing spots in the area of Mount Fuji. Regarded as an accommodation between a hotel, hostel and a camp, Tozanso serves guests from all over Japan and all over the world. YMCA Tozanso is also an International Youth Center. It is run by The National Council of YMCAs of Japan. Beginning in 1915, Tozanso was first designed to be a summer retreat center for YMCAs from all over the country

    Shopping Center Rentals: An Empirical Analysis of the Retail Tenant Mix

    This paper concentrates on the economic importance of the retail tenant mixture within shopping centers, and provides empirical evidence of the influence of tenant type on base rentals. The sample examined comprises 293 New Zealand shopping center leases. The results indicate that for some generic types of retail tenant (but not all), the type is an important determinant of shopping center base rents. It is also found that base rents decrease in size and increase with center turnover. Occupancy costs are tentatively found to be a negative determinant of base rents. These results are generally supportive of the recent shopping center space allocation theories of Brueckner (1993) and Eppli and Shilling (1993). The article also has several implications for the analysis of evidence in the rent review process.
