@TheStalwart @NewsLambert Good start, but not enough sadly. Conversations are very costly and will need to be further subsidized

@TheStalwart I asked this question about a year ago, and one of the experts who lurk on here told me this was impossible because of the way office buildings are designed (plumbing, etc.). I no longer listen to so-called experts.

@TheStalwart not enough sadly

@TheStalwart yay

@TheStalwart @Noahpinion I’d be curious to see how the math works. The problem is these ppl are losing money and have to refi at higher rates soon. What they probably need is cheap loans to redevelop the properties, or the city needs to wait for distressed sales & new buyers who can bankroll conversions.

@TheStalwart Great way to crush the tax base.

@TheStalwart The Govt using your stolen tax dollars to line the pockets of rich RE developers. Corruption, Corruption and more Corruption.

@TheStalwart Seems like a good move, might prove to be a template for other cities. To be very frank, most of the big cities on both east and west coast will need something like this to thrive in long term. Current back to office agenda is purely driven by office and hotel property…

@TheStalwart Cheaper to tear them down. The plumbing/heating/cooling all have to be redone.

@TheStalwart Oh, look at that. Housing and empty office real estate solved in 1 clever motion

@TheStalwart @BrianRoemmele

@TheStalwart Great idea.

@TheStalwart Won’t work at all without zoning and approvals changes too

@TheStalwart Office conversion episode was my favorite OddLots.

@TheStalwart @jennablan So when people move into those buildings and need services that are funded by property taxes, where dues that funding come from??

@TheStalwart @PeopleforParker take notes 📝
