Resumo: | Shopping is much more than a wealth-generator in post-modern so- cieties; it is intrinsically linked with the way people experience the city and an indivisible part of their day-to-day social experiences. Consequently, the literature has gradually recognized that commercial geographies are not just a consequence of economic market logics. It has been proven that there is a relationship between store-types and urban morphology, and that commerce is an important catalyst for urban regeneration and revitalization. Thus, the ur- ban form can also be a cause for the lack of success of a shop. The amount of vacant shops has been signaled as an important problem in urban areas, affec- vkpi"vjg"uvtwevwtg"cpf"vjg"kfgpvkv{"qh"pgkijdqwtjqqfu."cpf"tgÞgevu"vjg"pgicvkxg" effects of the economic-crisis. Strategies to overcome this problem are usual- ly economically-oriented and fail to capitalize on the new-found relationships between store-success and urban morphology.

The geographical distribution of vacant shops in a sample of Portuguese cities was set against morphological variables such as building age or centra- lity in the network.
