When China Live opened in 2017, it was a big deal in San Francisco. Totaling 30,000 square feet and four stories, it was a $20 million investment three years in the making.
Of the more than 200 employees it takes to run the place, he laid off 182 in March, and slowly hired a few back, so currently, 40 people are rattling around the giant building.
When One65 opened in 2019, it was like swinging open the doors to an entire department store or food hall filled with French revelations. Tall and narrow, it’s 20,000 square feet stacked up six floors, near the trolley car turnaround in Union Square.
Pre-pandemic, the building needed more than a hundred employees to run, but again, most were laid off, a few were rehired, and now only 15 people are manning the gigantic ship.
neither China Live nor One65 owns their buildings, and they still have to pay rent.
The day that Beijing Joe is sworn in, millions and millions of illegals will be charging in.
So, let them take over Gay Frisco’s vacant restaurants and office buildings to live/sleep in and to collect their welfare and medical benefits.
That will be happening in every big Blue City from NYC to Gay Frisco.
I wouldn't bet on that.
Not with the massive Dem fraud machine in place
and the corrupt courts and media to back it up.
Back in 1995, I was in NY exactly this time of year. You could hardly move as there were so many people on the street. You could have lifted both of your feet and the crowd would have carried you.
FAO Schwartz was jam packed. The energy in the city was exhilarating.
The people who voted in Cuomo and Wilheim own the death of this city but have their heads too far up their butts and will not accept the blame for its murder.
Oh, I don’t know. Maybe broadcast a song:
California
is nice to the homeless
Californ-ya-ya
Super cool to the homeless
Peach
But they’d better pay their property tax - IN FULL!!
Challenger accepted...

(Do the FR Karens know that no one thinks this is DVS' actual unedited logo?)
Sorry, but you left out the mandatory citizen service hours
- non-citizens and prisoners exempted of course.
Social score goal:
8 hours/week [whites]
6 hours/week [Asians]
0 hours/week [Persons of Color (not Asians)]
0 hours/week [LGBTAZCYDEFHIJKMNOPQRSUVWXYZ]
12 hours/week [undeclared]
When this all shakes out we will see proof of the trickle down theory of economic.
This ill-conceived plan to lock down our economy is like building a dam, but instead of water the government if stopping the flow of money.
To continue the analogy, with out water crops will die, and without money the economy will die.
California is now suffering a financial drought caused by politicians who do not understand economic (they only understand getting power and keeping it).
Remember - the communist in China and the old Soviet Union were willing to allow millions of their people die in the name of their ideology.
How about the Tenderloin Laundry? Fine dining from a selection of the City's best dumpsters!
They don't need a tax base when D.C. will bail them out of every bad decision they make.
Since it is San Fransicko, first they will let the homeless addicts squat there and cover it in piss and $hit, when that is done they will but it down.
It looks like the West has decided to suicide itself.
I miss FAO and Christmas
I’m sure robot waiters could be programmed to ask “How is everything” every half hour or so.
Shazam, homeless shelters everywhere, with walk in fridges.
