There are many stores and services that could provide services to consumers that are on a short walk or bike ride to their job. Cafes and drink shops would be a great shop to have in the middle of a high traffic area to attract customers that can stop real quick on their way to work. If bike usage becomes prevalent in a given area then a need for bicycle racks that customers can lock with their own lock for ease of use. This need would be satisfying for the bike riders and make their commute easier. It is even possible to make profit off of this such as charging say a dollar a day to be paid to use the parking. There is even a market for bicycle rentals for those who do not own a bicycle. These businesses have caught on such as On Bike Share (http://www.onbikeshare.com/bikerental/commercialbikerental.php)
These are just a few business that can pop up due to urban living and short commutes.
