i don't think retail rents are the problem. it's the commercial tenants all went WFH during the pandemic and SF has been especially slow to come back -- nm - hollywood big shot Aug 28, 16:17 2
- seems like market street is a huge homeless area like downtown LA. workers have to commute HOURS from the valley. -- nm - zeitgeist Aug 28, 17:13 1
  - it didn't seem any better or worse than LA's downtown when i was there in January (but maybe i wasn't walking the worst parts of Mkt St) -- nm - hollywood big shot Aug 28, 17:15
