More likely that office block owners are the upset ones.
Looks like these businesses will just have to adapt to the market like the rest of us. Love how it’s always capitalism for thee but not for me with these types.
if the cbd dies so be it. i mean they will have to re-adapt. The CBD for me feels more touristy and more student life. i used to stay there over lockdown sure a lot of businesses have close down as well but those who adapted are thriving.
CBDs could go along with the revolutionary concept of making themselves liveable. Now I know that this is sci-fi but hear me out. Some people would like to live near CBDs because of the culture. More residents = more customers.
How did those that are thriving adapt?
How about national or state programs/incentives to convert empty or under utilised CBD office spaces and buildings to affordable housing?
