Gordo,
Even if a Target were placed on one of the shopping streets you mentioned, I doubt it would take much away from business. You're talking about stores like Rabat, Marc Jacobs, Lucky Brand Jeans, etc. Most of these are high end stores and their business will not be canabilized by Target.
I'd say that places that could be affected would be more along the lines of Walgreens, but then again, there are tons of Walgreens all over the city and none seem to be canabalized by the fact that there is another location within 2 blocks.
As mentioned, this would mainly take away business from other store locations that are not currently in the city (Serramonte, Emeryville, Tanforan, etc).
