No, Seattle has bigger problems
No, Seattle has bigger problems
No, No it will not. People have already changed their habits and won't be going "back" to how it was before. Pair that with all of the crime, homeless, violence, etc.. This has already been proven in MULTIPLE major metros. Even with foot-traffic returning (from car or transit to office) the money has not and people are not bothering with local shops unless they are forced to.
The way the current American Metro's are constructed never made sense and now they really don't make sense. Unless it changes drastically, it's never coming back.
Also, don't forget to read between the lines. This is the real reason that companies are pushing RTO. The cities/states/property investments are requiring it.
