Coffee, beer and art
Some potential tenants include a second location for Warped Wing Brewery, a Boston Stoker Coffee Co. shop, the Dayton Visual Arts Center, a kitchen incubator and a collection of pop-up restaurants.
A new deli and grocer
Developers want to bring a deli and grocer called Feelohs to the Arcade. Feelohs is the brainchild of Haitham Iman, the owner and chef at Carmen’s Deli and Bistro in the Kettering Tower.

‘Small’ pieces in a big complex
Developers propose creating tiny living spaces and “curated, small” dining options for a portion of the arcade complex closest to East Third Street. The new apartments and micro units would be located in the upper floors of the Third Street Arcade (floors 3 to 5) and Gibbons Annex buildings, both of which are five stories.

Innovation hub
An “innovation hub” that houses The Entrepreneurs Center, the University of Dayton Center for Entrepreneurship and some faculty, staff and start-up companies, venture capital organizations and other business partners and groups is in plans. The hub would occupy all three floors of the arcade complex’s McCrory Building, which has a three-story, white terra cotta facing east on South Main Street.
