A recent study from the real estate firm Cushman & Wakefield found that about a fifth of U.S. office space was vacant as of the end of last year. www.npr.org/2024/02/15/1...

Could vacant office spaces across the U.S. be the solution to a national problem?

A recent study calculated that about a fifth of U.S. office space was vacant at the end of last year. What is the fate of all this empty real estate?

very funny that zoom is pushing for a return to the office

Or, heaven forbid, we could house the homeless people (don't even start with "people experiencing homelessness", I'll scream)

Hey maybe we could use some of that office space for things that are actually useful and meaningful to humans? No? Okay then.

honestly surprised it isn't more

It’s cheaper to tear them down and build actual homes.

If that problem is capitalism, then call me cautiously optimistic.
