[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]LOL this is over. It's staying in DC. New FBI HQ. Check. New world class football/concert stadium and mixed-use development. Check. Continued large scale development in Georgetown, the Wharf, SW DC, McMillian Reservoir, and Walter Reed. Check++++. Metro ridership back above 1,000,000 riders per day. Check. DC crime now below pre-pandemic levels. Check. This is why we didn't flee for the suburbs during COVID. Everything is bouncing back even bigger than before. [/quote] That must be why 50%+ of the commercial space is still not leased.[/quote] Restaurants and retail are closing by the day. That poster needs to relax. [/quote] DP. City Center DC (downtown shopping) and Georgetown are hopping, so no problem there. Union Market is also doing fine, but future development projects are on indefinite hold. Lots of restaurants are closing by the day, but new ones are also popping up. DC still has among the country's highest office vacancy rates. But people are commuting downtown for work, and Metro subway is even packed on Momdays with ridership way up. So it's a mixed picture, but not nearly as dire as many people think it is. [/quote]
