Pedestrians hints and unique shops side quest

It would be cool if while you walk through certain neighborhoods you can see speech bubbles of different things they wish they had in their neighborhood. it can give a more filtered and seamless nature to the different demands there are from people in a district. If you see quite a few people asking for a place with a cup of coffee in hells kitchen ,players can make a reasonable assumption a coffee shop would be the best bet. It gives the players a incentive to try unique shop concepts and more over a bigger reason to engage with the world over spread sheets. You can still use the Biz app but I think it would be a cool way to get players to engage with the world by traveling different areas and getting a idea of what to open. you could even consider small side quests (business opportunity) which could have you open up a certain store that also sells a product it wouldn’t normally sell (think a night club with jewelery store inside). if you complete it the store will have a passive permanent boost to marketing for having a unqiue concept. Likewise you can also have side quests like this to tamper with competitors or trigger shocks in the economy, even introduce characters to play market maker to a extent.
