I m curious as to the occupancy of the commercial/office buildings and the impact of no renters.

I have not seen many reports or talks about this. I also know that Omnitracs (formerly Qualcomm) moved out of 6 floors in downtown Dallas.
That had to be a rather large chunk of income someone is now NOT getting.

It was a completely foreseeable problem.

I laugh at the leftists who damaged their cities forever by overreacting and in doing so teaching companies and employees that there was an alternative that works.

One thing I am sure of is the fact these commercial property owners like to invest their profits into industry and business.

One factor not discussed in this thread:
-Aside from the disease, many, many business owners spent last year watching Marxists and blacks engage in insurrection, looting, burning, murdering. These business owners watched whole police departments stand by and let it happen.

This will no doubt factor into any decision to return to city offices rather than continue working remotely. Why expose yourself to not only the possibility of another lockdown, but to war in the streets?

Personally, I would think that working remotely to the extent possible, and moving any office facility to a satellite community say, fifty miles out, would make sense. You still have access to major airports and shipping, and you aren't dealing with corrupt big city Government.

I have a couple friends who are asset and fund managers in NYC for some big name firms.  They have entire floors of leased high-rise space that are empty, the staff has relocated across the US and work remotely, productivity is at all time high, and the leases won't be renewed.

We lived in Chelsea and loved it until we got the 19. They completely shut the entire city down. After getting over the couf, and the boarding up and riots, we couldn't move down to south Florida fast enough.

And the rent on our 980 square foot 2 bedroom apartment was $4,200. An extra $230 for each parking space, if you were crazy enough to have a car in NYC. We got around with Segways and beat all the cars anywhere, they have specific bike/scooter lanes painted green lol

Before that shithead ruined the city, it was actually a fun place to just walk by Madison Square Garden, see who's playing, and buy some cheap scalper tix. Or go down Broadway and catch a show. Or get some great food. That stupid fuck ruined it. And they don't deserve to come back, considering how easily everybody just laid down.

I'd walk around Manhattan with my official MAGA hat bought from the Trump site just to see the reactions, and boy that's a whole nother story. "Boy you in the wrong place". "Man fuck this white boy up". Which I have on video. Fuck em
